It's been one of dem days
Hi guys (& gals). Been a while since I posted on the forum. But this question has been bothering me for a while. I have a few of these little plastic containers that originally held grapefruit slices.

I drilled some holes in them for drainage and want to know if you all can tell me how many P. esseriana I can plant in them. I'll be honest state that the reason I'm asking is because I'm lazy and am hoping someone can give me a guestimate because I..., well here's why.

I tried thinning this out once to a couple of small plants but it didn't last long.
 
You could always chop that colony in half and ship it to me, then you won't have to even worry about repotting. :)
 
And in a couple months you could cut that clump in half and send that to somebody and in no time at all, everyone will be up to their eyes in P. esseriana. This plant loves to form clumps.
