Sure Ricky. But it take ages to trim this plant. I have never seen any stem plant with such a slow growth rate. The current state of the plant is after 2 months.
If you ask me, the plant have grown 12" height in 2 months time!!!!!
This is one superb slow growing plant. And I have noticed that after trimming the plant, if you don't plant it in a day, the stem would bend quickly. Once the stem is bend, its pretty difficult to plant. More over the stem is very thick and heavy. Hence planting a bend stem was pretty difficult and it keeps floating if you don't plant it firmly. Or you will have to do some temporary adjustments to hold the stem to the substrate. |
