Can i keep him for life in the pot?
How can i safely take out the small ones to move them in another pot?



Thank you!
Jimmy the Greek will do fine in a pot.
As your plant grows taller and wider you will need to increase pot size.
You may use a sharp knife to remove the small pups from the main plant and replant them.

A Youtube search "how to remove banana pups" will give you ideas on how to do it.
