I bought a red mangrove this weekend, (Rhizophora Mangle) and it has 4 shoots, or whatever they are called.
Is it possible to split theese up or is there another way to create a second plant?
Thank you in advance.

Yes.

How would you go about doing this? Thanks for the response...... chaz
Sorry. Never done it, myself.
But I imagine it would be much like dividing any other shrub, with the sharpest (and cleanest) knife you can find. Some Rootone also won't hurt, I imagine.
