If I were to ever grow one again I woud train it to be a standard. They get too big and are so floppy, I took all of mine out a year or 2 after I planted them.

If you ever get a chance when in Oakland, go to the Lakeside garden for they have a huge tree of one. Just huge. I see bigs ones around now and then. Berkeley Hort has a real tall one in their display bed on the far left of the nursery.

I see them in gallon cans for $6.99 all the time. In fact Lali, Regan's had some yesterday but theirs are probably $12.99. LOL

Here is a pretty one I saw growing somewhere. I liked it because it had a white edge that made it rather unique. I need to remember where I saw it. I can't find one online to get the name.
