Joy Re: seperating Bromeliad

Hi Tom,

As for broms, I normally separate the pup when they have a couple of roots to the rhizome. On the other hand if the attaching rhizome is stout enough with the pup having sufficient leaves, I separate it too.
I find it interesting that as the pups are separated, the mother plant will have more pups till she dies. If left on, there is always lesser pups overall.
