Environmental tolerances, heart, muscle and nerve toxicity, land invasions and multiple reproduction means account for bryophyllum's weed status. Especially the species Brophyllum daigremontianum ("mother-of-thousands") and delagoense("mother-of-millions") exemplify the genus's tolerance of drought stress and poor soils. They produce plantlets that drop from host plant leaves to form colonies as well as seeds that last for years in the worst above- and below-ground conditions.
The scientific name of bryophyllum is Bryophyllum pinnatum.
No
No, a bryophyllum plant does not grow from spores. Bryophyllum plants reproduce asexually through the production of plantlets along the margins of their leaves, which can then grow into new plants when they fall to the ground.
Bryophyllum is classified as a genus of flowering plants in the Crassulaceae family. It is a succulent plant, also known as "Mother of Thousands," and is native to Madagascar. Bryophyllum species are characterized by their ability to produce plantlets along the edges of their leaves.

They reproduce by LEAVES! <3
The Sporangium
The leaf of bryophyllum will start producing new plants from the small plantlets along its edge. These plantlets will develop roots and grow into new plants, essentially creating a method of asexual reproduction for the bryophyllum plant.
The vegetative reproduction in Bryophyllum is called "leaf-bud propagation" or "kalanchoe propagation." This method involves the growth of adventitious plantlets at the margins of the leaves, which can be solidified and then rooted to form new plants.
Bryophyllum reproduce by vegetative propagation. vegetative propagation is of two type: natural and artificial. Bryophyllum is showing natural vegetative propagation. here, at notches of Bryophyllum leaves small buds are formed, which are at dormant state. During favorable condition, these buds activated and detached from its parent. Each buds grow into complete new organisms.
