I'm off to take a pic in a moment, it hasn't got true leaves yet but should have by now!

My T. fortuneii was very quick to grow from a small seedling, I put it in the ground autumn 04 after growing in a greenhouse since getting it spring 1999.

Look at this stem, it's at least 6" diameter, I put my hand around the edge and couldn't reach half way. The pink bit on the right is a leaf, it looks like fingers!
