I saw this in Home Depot the other day. One of the pups was rotted but the main plant and the other pup was OK. The soil was soaking wet. Because one of the pups was rotted it was marked down to half price so I came home with it. I removed the rotted pup and am drying out the soil. Anyone know which variety it is? It is in a 3 inch pot.
Rescued from HD. But what is it?
yes, absolutely a mamm, don't know which one though.
I would remove the soil instead of waiting for it to dry, you don't know if there's any damage in the roots or lower part of your plant.

With apologies to the late Professor C. D. Darlington the following misquotation springs to
