I have never seen anything like this? I’ve separated it from the rest of my plants, it’s the only one with this problem! Why is it purple??

I didn't even see that on the leaf...

Can you grow a new plant off just a leaf or would it be like normal plants and just keep the leaf alive if there's not some "branch" with it to establish a clone?

It looks like the answer is yes - you can grow a normal plant from each leaf!

That's pretty cool. When there's not enough water they just start dropping minis that may have enough to survive.

Better than waiting for the whole plant to die.
