Does this look like a Strider??? It get's very large, has open thin leaves, always a good red even here in this pic where it has been in the greenhouse (it's usually darker)This picture is a bit overexposed also. One feature of this plant that I thought was part of the reason for it being called Strider is that it has long thin stolons and even the babies get large pretty quick.You can see the stolens already out to the ends of the leaves in this picture. I'm sure i can find some out in the can lot with the long stolons and large babies at this time of year. It does not bolt to flower as easily as Treebeard from the same series. Yes I have been a huge Tolkein fan since the 1960s. The plants kind of match the characters they are named after. Frodo is a good example.
I am so glad you are around too Kevin. If this is not it then I have another noid too and it looks nothing like bronco. Hilarious!
