#1 son & I rescued a 1m pilosocereus sp & several branches of Euphorbia angularis (if anyone wants a brance let me know)
The Pilosocereus came out without a root ball, about 6" of actual root is all we have left, i'm undecided if i should plant it as is or cut it up as cuttings?
any sugestions?

mostly im worried about rot. it wasnt in the best condition before we attempted to extract it, a few scars partly healed & it still has a few mealies on whats left of the root.
I will be dipping it in confidor in the morning & then i need to decide whats going to happen?

is it rotting now? if not just let sit for a week to let dry and plant away...the root there will save you time Smile

or if you want some stump forests, cut away Smile
