Your billie gives me hope. I have my own that I got, a small one that put out a leaf about 1.5 times the size of the ones before it and has shown no signs of putting out another in about a month now. I was worried i was doing something wrong and couldn't figure out what, but knowing that it took 2 years for yours to grow to that point and how rarely it puts out leaves has reassured me. I can't wait for mine to get as big as yours.

To loosen up the roots from the sides, you can take an old dull knife you don't like in the kitchen and run it carefully around the inside edge. Then poke yer finger into the drain hole in the bottom to start the push.

Well, sometimes you have to cut a lot in order to have varigation! You did well my friend! Although I admit ,I got scared watching you chop those tight nodes yet it ended pretty good at the end, the varigation looks stunning!! As for maintaining the varigation on the Billy, you have to give it intense light , morning or evening sunlight to keep the varigation constant,and a good specimen of course.

Its always a good idea to cut back for variegation. Fertilizing and preparing it 1-2 months before propagation helps a lot! Air layering is also very good idea with more expensive plants
