Trashing House Plants

Is it possible to divide a fern without killing it? We shall see.

 I've had this big momma for like 10 years and it's gotten too big. 

It was starting to remind me of this (source), and a fern bar. Not familiar with that term? Check out the brutally perfect summary here.

Anyhoo, I took that eighties badboy outside and sliced it up. This thing was dry, no wonder it had those brown leaves. It was also pretty rooted.

Now I have four to scatter around the house -if they survive the hack attack.
