Whew......crack open a beer !!!
I don't drink. But a nice lemonade will do just fine! Let's say that I might have pups available... 1 is already gone! Someone I know took 2 yesterday and is taking 1 more today. So I've got 34 left and a whole lot coming up!
+1 I decided to keep for myself. A large DC.

I separated 1 pup today and it was a lot of work. Roots were tangled so bad that I had to use a spray nozzle to blast the dirt away,so I could see where it was connected to the mother plant. And you separated 35? Wow! I hope they all do well.
:nanadrink:
Most of them were small though. The trick is to do it when soil is very dry. Way easier that way. But the larger one was a lot of work!!! That one made me sweat!!!

Good work man. That is a lot of pups! I think you just doubled the banana population of Canada!
Lol! Possible! There's still that guy near Toronto I told you about that seems to have a lot of them. I'm will receive 1 musa from him in 2 days. Supposed to be a jamaican ladyfinger. Can't wait!

Seems like I did it like the pros! Exactly how I did it. Nice video by the way. Only difference is that my pup didn't want to come out that easy!!! Nice little plumeria in the vid!

maybe that is how i can repay the favour
i have a plumeria which has mostly white flowers that taper to yellow in the centre
Wow! Thanks! I'd love to have plumeria. I had one like that when I was living in Mauritius. I love those trees. I wasn't giving you nanners to get something back but thanks. Made my day!
