It was pretty !*@#!! delicate when I tried to grow it from seed. None of mine made it anywhere nearly large enough to separate. They were the tiniest things I've ever seen, and stayed tiny for what seemed like forever, until which time they promptly died. You obviously did something right though. Those plants actually look pretty healthy.

Mine I picked up at Publix is healthy enough. I think the trick is keeping them alive long enough until they can get a little size going. Early on it's very tricky.
