Begonia bogneri

Has anyone had any luck in propagating this plant by leaf cuttings? I have a couple of plants growing in a terrarium. While they are growing well, I want to make sure I have a few backups just in case.

RE: Begonia bogneri

A friend knowledgeable about begonias, has published an article about humidity loving begonias such as B. bogneri, and he tells me he has rooted those odd leaves in water, but prefers placing them on damp spaghnum to root under a tight cover to maintain humidity. Under lights is fine.
