Default separating pups on musella lasiocarpa

My mom planted a musella a little bit larger than this one of mine. Problem is she planted it in a flower bed which has grown out of control. I'd like to thin out this bed including the musella. Because it's so overgrown, there's difficulty getting good access to the musella. Seems the only thing I can do is "hack" away some of those pups. Thought I'd just slice away with this big knife I have. She's concerned I'll kill the whole plant. Could I "hack" off on all sides without damaging the mother plant? OH, by the way... I.. *cough* ..nearly killed her DC by separating the pups. There was like 5 or 6. Why didn't you guys TELL me I couldn't cut them all away, leaving no root??

(This is the size of mine and I'm only posting it because I figured out how to post pics within the thread so I'm showing off.. ahhh.. I mean, practicing.
