Score!
It's been 20 years since my last one. Got these 5 rooted stems from a friend just now.
Picture coming, getting an error message when I try to upload.

Haven't done these in a long time.

5 stalks, I want to keep 1 mother but sell the rest.

All 5 in one pot, let it grow out and sell cuttings?

3 for a mother, 2 individuals for sale?

I like at least 3 in a pot Shrug!
Wish I saw this earlier and took pictures of mine at work.

One in a pot sold would be weird to me but someone may like that?
Buried nodes should send up a new stalk I read once. Otherwise you just have the one stalk Shrug!
Plant it and they will come.

I should expect/hope for 1 new stem from each rooted one I'm planting?

I think I'm going to pot all 5 together, let it settle, take some cuttings and see how they do with 1, 2, or 3 per. Fingers crossed, going for it.

If you plant 1 in a pot , the pot needs to be very small, otherwise while the plant is small it'll be too wet. It is easier to keep them healthy with several together. And they look better too.
