What JoeReal says about TC weakness is right on the money. Even with potting up and developing some growth first I lost 5 wimpy TC plants this year.

They were the pitogo, saba, red iholene, ensete maurelii and just recently the gran nain x sumatrana.

Three were replaced with 4 and 5 foot pups cut off the parent and are pushing huge leaves now. Still undecided about replacing the Maurelii - had bad spider mites over and over until it croaked. The red Iho will be permanently replaced by a parent pup of something else as soon as I track one down.

Any one want to trade? Got a big corm Dwarf Orinoco in a pot that can ship bareroot. See my gallery.
