Yes, it is pretty cool, isn't it?

Muchas, Janet.....

Gotta get one of those ... even if it's zone-pushing just a little.

Yeah...I'm thinking that I should have it also.....seriously, I want everything.

I have a few pups of this plant available. They are still small but should be able to leave home in about a month Here is the plant they came from.

Ooh...Lucky You! I think I can probably pick one up around here, but I'm thinking you'll be hearing from Tee.....lol.
She'd have a harder time locating one in Tennessee.

Can you grow one there, tee?

Annie's lists them as hardy to zone 7b and I'm 7a ... but if the weather stays anything akin to the way it has been this year, I just might give one a try. Another reason for a greenhouse (like I needed another reason).

I want some like you have in the photos, Sherri. Is that too much to ask??

It'll be a few years.....

Oh well....time goes so quickly that I plant something small and before I know it, it's full size....lol..
