Annapet, I have been seeing 5 gallon pots of Inca Queen all over. Saw 2 Sunday at Longs Drugstore!! They wanted $22. They were very nice with such beautiful leaves. I was so tempted.

The problem with them I have found, is they get virused so easily when you are growing other brugs. I had one huge one in the ground for many years and when I started bringing lots of other brugs home, it got virused. Some people live with the virus for it gets better at different times of the year but the leaves really bothered me. .

I was at the Arboretum in San Francisco last month and their sangs are all virused also I noticed.
