"Did you cut down slices until you found a live green (or yellow/white) leaf in the center? "
RobG - Yes I did just that, but it was getting late and I didn't have time for a photo of the base. I took off 4-6" at a time and nothing but brown ll the wayto the ground. We'll see what happens over the next week.
These are my Basjoos that came through just fine of course! My understanding was that Orinoco was
"almost" as hardy as Basjoo, so I was hoping to see fruit this year. I thought the trick is to keep as much of the P-Stem alive above ground to get an extra head start in the Spring. I'll try digging them up next time around.
