This 1 i have for 10 years now.

Always had it in a pot with plenty of soil. Our climate is temperate but it does well, if it doesn't rain too much.

Its now 3 feet tall and 5 feet wide.
Weight about 150 - 200 kg, including the tub.

Last year i've put it in this tub because it became hard to move the thing. I used to get it out of its pot, then move the plant and the pot seperated because the weight of the plant alone was about 60 kg.
I fitted the tub with 6 little wheels so i can move it inside without lifting.

I didnt expect it to grow much more, because 2 years ago the grow was kind of stopped. But now it has 1 year in this tub it has grown another 10cm in height, and its leaves cover has thickened a lot. (maybe because i added fertiliser to the soil?)

Nevertheless... i have never seen any record of this plant grown taller then this 1. Yet, considering its health and growing speed i expect it to grow 5-10 cm in height in the coming years. I just dont have the room anymore to store it in winter...
