Hey y'all, today I did something that 😱 scared me half to death. I separated my pot of 3 whale fins!! I had to cut 🔪 them apart. I hope they all survive 🤞🏾😁

I have a plant that needs separating right now and I’ve been too scared to do it! I guess this is my sign. 😭 Great job, I’m sure yours will do just fine! 🙌

As long as each plant has a substantial root system, they should be fine. They are gorgeous!
