Default Re: Variegated Florida Propagation

Good and Bad news

I accidentally killed the mother plant/corm I kept for myself.
The compost I used was very fresh and literally steaming... I think it was too much
The plant had not been doing well so I dug it up today and the corm was completely rotting away... Lesson learned
The plant literally 'fell off' the corm which rotted away so I cut it down to the base and will see if I can salvage it but I highly doubt it.

The good news is the second plant I gave to my mother is doing just fine (so it was definitely my fault)
and 4 of my pups are growing so far so at least I can start over.
The others shouldn't be far behind
