The plant fills a very large pot. How do you slpit it? There us no sign of
new growth.


I would take it out of the big pot and cut the root-ball into 2, 4
pieces etc, cutting as much between leaves as you can. You can cut it
with an old bread knife or similar. Give the pieces more room in new
pots and new soil and there soon will be new growth.
Have you ever seen it flower?
