Yeah, I know...that one was really small to be blooming. They do get a LOT larger, as you very well know!

Um....I wouldn't recommend it. Ensetes don't pup like musas, so I bet you would just end up killing the plant and gaining nothing. If you want to get more/smaller plants off the main plant, there is a propegation method that seems to work well (for maurelii at least). Search the forums for maurelii propegation or something like that....there are threads on it (and pics in the wiki page). Essentially, you cut it off at the ground and butcher the crap out of the center growth point. It looks like crap for a while and then turns into a ton of little plants that you can then separate off.
