Put this on the bottom shelf in the conservatory after re-potting it beginning 2012 and only watered it occasionally (when I remembered) What a pleasant surprise when I checked it this morning.

Thanks Rod,
There is at least 4 small pups pushing their way through the bigger ones which will eventually spoil the overall symmetry of the plant. Will need to do something about it soon?
