I planted two like that last year and they made 4 new babies. I've had them put out roots from those edges. Since it's cooling off now, cut the foliage back to about 2 inches long and let it dry in a shady spot for about a month. No, not kidding. I've left amaryllis bulbs, forgotten and unplanted, in a pot in my garage for six months and when I planted them, every one came up. I've tossed them on the ground and had them root into the ground and grow and bloom. They're tough bulbs, really they are. Maybe I'll tuck a bulb or two into your brug box. ;)

Thank you! I just worry he'll rot if I put him in soil. It's been out of the ground for several days though. I keep trying to get to Lowes to get some antifungal powder, but life keeps getting I the way.

You're very sweet. I'll plant whatever you send. You'll have to talk me through rooting that brug!

Just use baking soda to brush onto the end -- just a bit. It kills fungus. You can also dip them into a dilution of Lysol before planting, or spray them with peroxide.
