Default Re: Repairing cut after removing pup

The petiole is the small stem-like section between the leaf blade and the pseduostem. If this has very prominent, wavy wings, and you cannot find any wax on the plant, then it is M. basjoo. 'Misi Luki' should have a very distinct reddish underside of the leaf, even on young plants.
