It seems the only time I get to do my smaller projects in the garden is at night, except for the lack of light it's the perfect time for me and its cooler too. Tonight I uprooted another of my P.Gloriosum from the garden, to put in a pot so I can look after it better, snails are a bad thing. I surgically removed this limb with all its roots so I could fit the main plant into its new pot.
Now I have this single plant with an awquard trunk ,lots of roots and one big leaf with another coming up.
The question is
...........can I cut this long stem in half, so it will fit in a pot without adversly affecting the plant
......if so will I be able to plant the trimmed piece which has lots of roots but no leaf to get a new plant.
