Hi, I'm hoping for some advice. This past fall I inherited a pot of hoyas that I was told was forty years old. I can see that the planting is in fact three, maybe four individual plants. It obviously hasn't been repotted in years, and I want to separate out the individual plants and pot them separately.

(I know it's not the ideal time, but this is the time I have -- pneumonia this spring has delayed all of my plant care, unfortunately.)

Does anyone have any information on separating out plants that are this old and intertwined? How careful do I need to be of the roots when I untangle them from each other? Will this affect this year's blooms, do you think? It's cool to water them in with SuperThrive, right? (I've had such good results using it on other occasions when I've traumatized roots.) Any other advice or warnings?

Thanks Smiling
