Holly--

Went out and took some pictures...

I only have ONE, small (but about 4 years old) start of NBC. You are welcome to have it...
It is so small because I started it from pieces of the ling, spikey growths it makes,
convinced it would root.
These stem pieces are from the time when Bec had her Plant Swap and I brought her my BIG NBC.
How long ago was that???

It took forever for it to start growing any leaves. It has lived in this small 4" pot since then.
Give it a new, bigger pot--some good soil and compost--and BAM! Watch it grow!
Maybe it has been waiting for you all these years? Waiting to be "liberated!"
It has a LOT of leaves. I believe when this gets going--you will have a nice plant in no time...

Here is a picture--will bring it for you. Gita
