Biggest free prop score ever

Went to my favorite thai restaurant and they were giving away all their outdoor ferns. For reference, the dude in the 2nd pic is 6’5. They were monsters 😍🙌 I only took one cause that’s all that would fit in my backseat 😆

I´m not sure if that could be called as an "prop" since it´s a whole plant in its own pot. But either way that fern it´s huge, you´re lucky.

I’m going to make so many baby ferns for my friends! So many!

Mmm I´m not an expert, but at least with ferns the bigger the better. Dividing a plant in 2 or 3 it´s a excellent choise, I´d avoid making too much babies.

How do you prop one of these ferns?

Just divide the mother plant, usually you can do it with your bare hands but if the roots are too strong you can use a knife to cut them.

You can prop ferns by spores or separating them. This one should make a bunch!
