Planting Staurogyne Repens ?

[marko]

Just wondering I have just planted Staurogyne Repens and am wondering I read that when planting you should cut off any upright shoots to keep the plant growing across the ground? would this mean cut off the top of the plant? not really sure what they meant by that.

If you top the stems once rooted, it tends to grow more horizontally along the substrate. If you don't top it it grows vertically but very slowly.

Hopefully that helps !

Ya thanks that's what I was wondering guess it's best to wait till roots kick in.

how tall have you experienced them to grow? I haven't trimmed mine for about 10 months and some are over 8" just starting to trim them and getting the compact look

(they're the original ones i got from you crsfan, from 10 pieces i have over 200+ now)
