Well, the knobbly bit was much bigger than I expected so I decided to cut the layer off and have planted it in gritty mix and put it one of my propagators for the winter. Fingers crossed.

I’m not sure, Brendan. The top part is still very much alive although further into its autumn colours than the bottom half. I last looked a couple of months ago and there were plenty of knobbly bits around the cut but I don’t know if they were callouses or emerging roots. I’ll go and have another look and post a photo later. |

I put this in a fb group and have been advised that it is all callous caused by the layer being too wet and that I shouldn’t have separated it. Oh well, we live and learn.

I think it has a chance, wait and see what you've got in the spring. |
