Re: ensete maurelii red-creating pups
I was really mean to mine when I cut it off. I cut a "v" in the center after I cut it off just above ground level, then I took a sharp knife and destroyed the center. I actually drilled out a hole about 1/2 inch across and 2 inches deep down the center of the corm with that knife. And in the center there is where the cauliflower like tissue grew and where the sprouts are coming up. That callous tissue completely filled the holes I drilled out and mounded up out of the center a little bit.
