Good lord this thing is HUGE!! Thanks for giving me the BIG half :eek:

Bev cut it in half and gave me the big half LOL. Right now it's sitting on the kitchen counter in a bucket because I don't have a pot big enough for it to fit in!

So I guess I'll have like 100 billion pots all over my kitchen after I cut it up into smaller plants :lol: :lol:

Beautiful plant.
I can grow a big mamma plant but I never have masses of babies. I'll have maybe 10-12 at a time.
It may be that I don't keep them rootbound enough. Mine are in big pots.

Yea, I think they have to be pretty much root bound. Ask Muffy LOL she almost had to saw it in half :lol:
I still have mine in a bucket, just got ahold of some pots, now I have to get some potting soil and I'll be ready to cut it up :)

It was originally in one of those cardboard pots that are really really tough to break! Had roots coming from everywhere. It was a difficult plant to repot. Glad when it was over. I now have about 4 pots of little babies everywhere. HAHA....I'm a spider mom? :eek: :lol: :lol: And my sister, Annie in here has the other 1/2. Walk into my house & you'll feel like singing,"In The Jungle The Mighty Jungle"... :lol: :lol: :lol: :pumpkin:
