What is a stolen? : )

It should be stolon. Episcias and alsobias are examples of plants with stolons - the plant puts out a "runner" stem and a cluster of leaves form on it. That cluster is a stolon. Plants like that are propagated easily by rooting the stolons - either while still attached to the mother plant (best method if humidity is not high) or after cutting it off.
