I should add that cutting across veins has worked for heracleifolia type leaves for me. Sometimes the larger leaves rot despite what I do. So I tried just a finger of a couple of heracleifolia leaves in sand and both rooted. I'm trying that again with 'Black Falcon' in a large tank. I'm also trying to water root the whole leaf as well. Try different methods on difficult leaves to see what works and what doesn't.

Here is a 'Black Falcon' leaf from today.
