We took a couple plants off this and Jan managed to turn the other runners around to allow more light to get through....it seems to be settling in very well..... ;D..look at all the long roots on those runners.....zounds !!!

When you find people who not only tolerate your quirks but celebrate them with glad cries of "Me too!" be sure to cherish them. Because those weirdos are your tribe.  (Sweatpants & Coffee)

Biggest I have ever seen Jon.  Do I see multiple plants all in the center, from the same mother?  Could they be separated or would that damage too many leaves?

It's all one plant, Barb....we've learned the hard way about trying to split sword plants...LOL..we had a sword colony that went glass to glass in a 60 breeder...think hostas...had a big die off after thinning and moving,etc...took forever for them to come back a little...this one has dozens and dozens of runner plants, and starting to sprout more... ;D..it stays put even if I have to remove the top and hang lights from the ceiling..... ;D..besides, Mr. & Mrs. BN love it now...
