1) How much light does it need? I hear it needs partial sunlight, not full sun or full shade. About as much for a Cephalotus?
2) What size pot should I grow it in? This is apparently a big...

decided to take a root cutting from a regia bc the root was taller than the pot i was putting it in bc I have heard they can be propagated this way; one q: do I leave any root material above the ground or no?
edit: would chances of success be better if the root is planted vertically or...
