hi brent,the plant is in great condition,i have lots of drainage in the pot,the plant was given to me free from a garden centre,because they could not sell it,but me being me i wanted to take it home and give it some tender loving care,i think it will be ok,given time,there is quite a lot of root in the pot,i have to make sure that the only two roots dont break,do you think by adding rooting powder to the base of the plant ,weather it would encourage more root to grow?i have added bonemeal to the soil to help it along
