Thanks to everyone who responded with all this good advice and the detailed instructions. II got some plain terra-cotta planters, and 've decided I'm going to transplant and root-prune these one at a time. I've done lots of bare-root fruit tree pruning, so hopefully the process is similar. I'm glad to know they're not too fragile and don't like misting---I don't have the time for plants that need to be mollycoddled!

5-foot stems? Yeah, I guess the hanging basket idea wouldn't work for one of those! I guess I'll have to "wait and see" about that idea! With any luck, there's that beautiful pink one that I got from my boss in here somewhere.....

The one plant I've had for a couple of years bloomed last week, so there's hope!
