Fiddle leaf fig propagation . After a lot of requests, finally here is a fiddle leaf fig (FLF) propagation video 😊 There are 2 ways to propagate a FLF: . 1) Tip cutting or branch cutting - cut the top of the main stalk, or tip of a branch, if your plant has branches. You don't want the cutting to have more than 1-2 leaves if they are large, or 3-4 if they are small. You don't have to remove the whole leaves, you could also cut them in half. This is what I would recommend for very large leaves.
