Haven't paid enough attention to this thread, but having just read it I am off to the pantry to get loads of jars! My Echevaria are rooting very well in water. I leave them to callous over for a few days, as is often suggested. I just break of individual leaves, or pull out any small offsets and put them straight into water. There is a 100% success rate, even with the tiniest of fragments. Has anyone tried it with Aeoniums?
On March 6th, I bought a small bunch of spring onions, as my daughter was coming to visit that weekend and wanted to cook something Chinese. (Not a pangolin)
I put the onions in a yogurt pot with some water, to keep them fresh. She only used one or two and left the rest in the pot.
A few days later, I noticed some good roots developing on all of them; so, I put them in a flower pot and have had endless leaves since.
I've been inspired by this tread and went out to take cuttings from my two varieties of penstemon to pop in some water. I was trimming some dead pieces out of my buddleia, and accidentally snipped off a shoot. I put that in the jar of water as well, to see if it puts out some roots too.
Treeface, the leaves look a little nibbled, and there's some webbing I think,the black bits might be insect pooh. If it was mine I'd give it a rinse under a gently running tap and then pot it up.

Another happy accident!
