Possibly needs a larger pot, if you've not repotted in the last couple of years - a deeper pot means deeper roots and it'll be more stable with those. You can also split it if its large, though recommended time for that is Spring.

Thanks Bamboo, we'll try that.

I've got one of these, an ancient thing which I got from my mother-in-law and I was told not to repot until the plant was so pot-bound, it pulled the pot out of shape. The pot mine is in was originally circular but it's now been pulled into an oblong. It's at least ten years since it was repotted and the roots to the new parts of plant run across the top of the soil. Must get round to repotting it soon!

Thanks for replying Sheilar. Do you mean to say that you don't have a problem with the plant toppling over? Mine is so top heavy. Perhaps your pot is deep enough to have encouraged really strong root growth which would bear out what Bamboo said.

Mine is 3' 3" tall, in a 7" diameter pot which is 7" deep and it has no problem staying upright. It has 11 stems in the pot which are evenly spaced and seems to balance the pot. As regards 'splitting' the plant, I tried this and was unsuccessful. I did manage to grow another full plant from a leaf cutting. I chose a new stem and cut about 3" off the top with a sharp knife, put this into compost and hey presto, a new plant developed. Hope this helps.

I'll put a photo on at a later date, not now though as I'm off to bed! Good night.

Mine's in a 6 inch deep pot, and is the same height as Sheilar's - but 18 months ago, despite the 4.5 inch deep pot not being bent out of shape, my plant started to fall over as yours has done, Notepad - I repotted into the 6 inch pot, taking off one of the side growths into a separate pot at the same time, and its been upright ever since. Though I suspect it will need an even larger pot by Spring next year. The side growth, which oddly wasn't variegated, grew on into a separate plant.

Many thanks. I'll let you know the outcome.
