Alright! We can share pics of our Momo Batan. I ordered that as well. It has three leaves coming up already. I still have mine inside planted in a black plastic pot. I will have my pot in the heat of the day in shade. That black plastic will really heat up in the sun. Good for now with the cooler nights, but in the summer would be too hot here. My experience with them has only been in large public gardens. When they are fresh it is magical, but when they start going dormant, they are such a mess. They become invasive and weedy in some ponds. This will be my first experience with it in my home garden.
That's why I will be doing it in a pot also, so that I can have it on show when it looks good, and pull it to another less seen area when it looks ratty.

That's great that you have a sister that loves to garden and can help with all the work. I could use one of those. And I agree. When you love gardening, you will always find a way
