    The one we have is about 3 foot tall. In a 12" pot...seems to enjoy it. Some of the leaves are about 8 to 10" in diameter.

    Thing is, should I cut of the aerial roots (cause they look untidy) and do they prefer being pot bound?

    Other question, can I propergate it the same way as a rubber plant...ie cut one of the leaf stems to make it bleed and pack that cut with sphagnum moss in a plastic bag until it roots.?

    Cheers:thumb:
