Clumped 'Mouse'
« on: July 01, 2013, 04:30:39 PM »
Da 'mouse' produced this clump of eight plant growing from the core of last years main plant. When I planted this earlier this year the plants were much smaller and had little or no roots.  Should I let it grow out or perform surgery?

Let it grow out!  Not familiar with that plant name...

Last year rhizome (is this the correct term?) produced about 10 new plants all attached to the rhizome. I saw this on a half dozen C. 'White Gecko" I bought today.
