Hello Hortica,
Regarding the name of plant that its called Italian Palm where as actually its a kind of Cycas species, we will leave the debate for some other time.
Do you happen to have a picture of pups when they were ready for propagation. Seems the one we have to grow a lot to have stems of soft ball size.
Any suggestions about separating them from mother plant? We have not found any video on YouTube about it.
As you must have noticed that many new branches have grown on main plant. Shall we leave the outside old branches or prune them?
Do you travel frequently to our part of the world? If you happen to be in our neighborhood I would like to invite you for dinner at Burj Khalifa, tallest building of the world. The restaurant called ATMOSPHERE on 122nd floor has unbelievable view of Dubai and offers finest cuisine.
