Let them flower and then do the dirty!! I have repotted and chopped, but the best results I saw came from old plants. Dead easy. Just take a piece at least 2 sections long, you can dry out a bit first, and then repot into pots or baskets. I have a broken bit from an old plant which is flowering away on the potting table. When it finishes I'll take cuttings. As long as you keep new ones it won't matter when the old ones die off. Mine wither and rot at the base.

hi jennie, Ive done them in winter and summer, and theyll strike at any time (I'd wait until after it flowers though or youll lose all those lovely flowers). as annabel said, just take pieces of 2-3 segments, let them dry out for a couple of days and stick them in a pot, just be very easy on the water until they develop roots though or theyll just rot.

Just noticed buds on mine today - very exciting! If bits fall off I think you can stick them in soil now, but I wouldn't be breaking any up till after flowering.
