Default Re: Donetta

I have a question about whether to dig and bring in the cold hardy (Basjoo) plant or mulch and leave it out for winter. If I cut the stem down to a foot or two, do I take the chance of cutting off the bloom that hasn't developed yet? None of the Basjoos have flowered...this is the 2nd year for them. If I decide to dig them and bring them in, do I leave the pups attached to the mother stem or separate them from her at the time of digging. I have other non-hardy nana plants that have pups. I don't have a choice but dig them, so do I leave them all in a clump or separate them from mother plant.
