to repot??? LOL Isn't this an ugly sight? This has been stuck in a dark room all winter and now it's found new life. Somehow (with the help of DH) I've got to move this to a bigger pot. After I clean all the dead off of it, should I take all the pups from it or leave them? I've never removed a pup before, but I'm guessing I just remove soil and hack away at it? (I think I read that somewhere) Anyone have other suggestions?

Last year when I potted this one up, it was about 2 feet tall, I took 2 fertilizer tree spikes and broke them in half and stuck them in the soil. This banana sure seemed to like it. Excuse the mess.....I had many pots in hibernation and they are all stuck out back now.
