I will have to give my very large plant a severe trim before repotting to bring it in this winter. I will have enough to
make about 5 or 6 pots with 3 or 4 cuttings in each. It bloomed early this year - in June - instead of the usual September.
The cuttings would be unrooted but root very easily and have to be at least 3 or 4 years for new plants to reach the
blooming age. I sat in the yard in a plastic chair, with a flashlight, to watch this bloom open. It began to open at 7:30 p.m.
and was fully opened at 10:30 p.m. Of course, it was wilted by noon the next day. But, the effort was worth the wait.
I think the cuttings would ship in a large padded envelope. I'm not sure what the postage would be. Let me know if you are interested.
Edited to say: My plant is in a 16" pot and I trimmed it this afternoon to about 30" above the pot rim. I have 2 five gallon buckets of
large cuttings free for just enough to cover postage.
