Here's to all the global warming pushers, may your winters be -30 below and four feet of snow in your driveway. Because I want you happy.

Doubt that's going to happen.
Still hoping one day that it's monocieous (spelling!!!!????).

They are really beautiful. I only have two trachies in the ground and only for two winters now, but i notice this summer, they are really picking up. It seems they really want to GROW this year. My question is this; is there a point where they "take off" or do they just slowly grow through the years?
