Hi Plant peeps! I'm after a bit of advice please 🙏 I've had this Vriesea Splendens / Bromeliad / Flaming Sword for just over a year now. The flower has long been and gone and I know it won't grow another. However, this pup has been growing from the middle of the mother plant for about a year now and is now bigger than the main plant, everything I have read says the mother plant will naturally die leaving the pup to be repotted and that will eventually flower itself. As you can see the mother plant is showing no signs of going anywhere anytime soon. Do I just carrying on waiting or do I attempt to remove the pup which doesn't look like it'll be easy? Would the pup flower one day if still attached to the Mum? Any advice on what to do please would be much appreciated. If I were to remove the pup, how on earth do I go about it? Thank you.
