It is big but I have seen bigger. What really amazes me is that it is a very tight compact ball. It would be differcult to get more than a 2-3 bulb division without putting in some effort. Plus the fact that it is self sustaining, there is no media outside of the 5" pot buried in the middle somewhere and there is no rot. Go figure.
