MeemsDream,

Do you know which one you have? P. 'Incense' and P. incarnata are hardy in zone 6. It is possible that your friend has one of these if it grows outside. Please check the plants database on DG to see if any matches what your friend has.

These two will sprout suckers from the roots. I have pulled up the suckers by digging around the suckers down to the roots and break them (suckers) off. Dip in rooting agent, and pot them, they should root in 2-6 weeks.

If what you call little ones are seedlings, then just transplant them.

Tim

Thanks Tim, I think they are suckers, so will take your advice. Haven't figured out what kind it is yet. But we will.
