I let MadJack talk me out of my big EE,I just wanted the babies to ship out,so I made him ride in the back,and I got to drive the old truck.
MadJack and his big EE.
She was pretty root bound,and the little ones were making it had to keep water to it.
Got her set up with all the company in the pot
Goodness gracious!! I need directions to su casa, Boda man!

Root that looks like it has a tree trunk! It that the one you call Melanga??
Okay, now I think it is time for Ears 101 by Doc Boda. How in the world do you do it?
MadJack lives over a block,he sure loves his old truck,he started working on me early while we were welding,once he gets his mind set you may as well give up.
Poppysue this is Alocasia Macrorrhiza,Melanga is a diff fam.
it was pretty hot,and when he threw and ice cold watermelon in the deal I said sold!
I ate the whole melon myself!!
Bet you needed that big leaf to hide behind after eating all the watermelon. LOL!!
OMG Doc that thing is huge!!! That is tuber all the way up the the leaf shoots right?? How many years does it take to get like that??? Truly awesome!
Seed this one is 5yrs old,it is the first one I bought for Plants delight,yep thats all tuber.
well, I like the EE, but man oh man...THAT TRUCK! What a cool Pickemup!
It is a great truck,he picked it up not too long ago,2500 bucks,he drives it all the time,only thing it needed was a tail light bulb,all gauges work,even the little fan on the dash works,I did a few searches and it is worth 6 to 10 grand,it does not have one rust hole on it,some surface rust,but other then that it is solid!!
I call him Fred Sanford when he drives it,LOL
This thread is terrific! Love the plant, love the truck. It must have been a riot to see it going down the street. But maybe your neighbors are used to it?? LOL
They are Liz,they just laugh and point at us.
Y'all notice how he never gave us directions.......hee, hee! Still got that addy and a Atlas, and a Mapsco...hee, hee.....
