Looks healthy. These are fast growers once established. How long have you owned this one?
Cheers, Barrie.

This is one of the leftovers from the first 10 I planted last summer. It was wintered inside in a pot tho and seems to have stopped growing up and just continues to put on new leaves. These only get about an hour and a half of direct light a day. Its still very pretty.

If it is puuting out new leaves then it is growing. Give it time and it will become a 15' monster.

Its now September. Getting really close to frost in the night. This little bugger did eventually start to put on the height. Not alot but definately moving upwards. I will take a few shots of it before I start my winter prep on it.

Thanks ya'll!
