Hi all, I have a ZZ pot from B&Q a few months ago. I’m trying to repot it and and it is so swollen the entire plastic pot is bulging from the sides Unfortunately, I’ve ended up pulling them out with the roots still in the other pot Have I destroyed it? Or can I plant the surviving plants into a container and they should grow?
Are there still some roots attached to the plant?

1 likeYes, you can propagate those. But they will take foreeeevvvveeeerrrrr. Mine took 2 years to put out new growth. You want to make sure any damaged ends have calloused over before putting into your medium of choice. I would also let the rhizomes callous over as well before topping with new soil.

0 likesNot sure what your light situation is, but I had mine under a grow light (on for 12hrs/day) and watered when 70-80% dry. Once they developed a few roots I cut that back to 80-90% dry.
