Default Re: Just bought a musella lasiocarpa

Oh Wow!
my musella looks like a kind of stumpy version of your 'mum musella' I am so scared of putting it in the ground, for a couple of reasons...we have slugs (can't put out pellets because of the cats! Done the mussel shell/egg shell thing around my delphiniums...worked quite well....daren't risk my bannana!) Is the pseudostem (not sure if I have spelled it right) a result of the cut off leaves (a bit like a yucca) or does it emerge from the middle of its own accord (if this is a stupid question please forgive me, this is my very first musella). This may sound silly but I want to pot it on (no sign of roots at the base of the pot) but am a bit scared of disturbing the baby plant. My partner Richard thinks I am a bit loopy as I am so concerned about a plant!!!!
