Can Baptisa Be Split? How Do You Control The Roots?

Question

Baptisa can get really really large. Can it be thinned or split. I tried this once but little plants sprang up from the roots everywhere. Thanks for any help you can give

Answer 1

Interesting. They don't, typically, do well once they are disturbed. In this case, they must really like the spot. Aside from chemical means, there is not a whole lot that you can do. What I would do, though, is to take a shovel and outline where you want it to stay. Go deep. This will help to keep them in line, some.
