Hi,

I thought I'd ask outright as I cannot find any specific threads about my query.

Anyway, I've just got a Golden Cane which is about 6ft with about 5 stems and a foot of slender trunk. Are they ok to transplant? I did get plenty of the main root system but some didnt come out?

I've taken off many fronds to reduce shock and is currently soaking in seaweed emulsion.

Advice appreciated.

Tough as old boots Lee , should do OK . Though would have been better doing it a few months ago.

Golden Cane =Dypsis lutescens? Used to have one of those. Would love to see a pic of a mature one in its native habitat of Madagascar!

They seem to dig well in my experience. Here's a couple of pics of one that I dug up and moved out of shade into full summer sun. The first pic is shortly after the transplant. You can see that it's sunburning. The second pic is one year later. It recovered very nicely.
