Way to go, Trish! Why would you be selling it???
:) Donna
It is too big to put in the house.. It towers about 10-11 feet high.
Wow!!! That is huge!!! Wouldn't it survive outside?
:) Donna
I wish.. but it is a tropical and we get hard freezes in this part of Florida. :(
Well as you CERTAINLY can't sell that plant..............
it appears you'll be moving further south. :)

I wished!! but sell I must.. I was hoping that it would bloom as I can get more for it since it takes about 7 years or more for it to bloom.
How much did it grow over the summer?
:) Donna
Thats great....but makes me think it will be 14 years before I get a bloom on mine....LOL
can't wait to see yours open......
MzM, that's great that you got a bloom coming, now that it's there, how long till you see the flower? Hopefully before you sell it. Who would you sell it too, a 10-11' BoP? A Nursery? Will it survive digging up and all? So many questions.

I'll take a picture of the entire plant tomorrow. It is in a pot. Down here with these big beach homes and cathedral ceilings it will look fabulous.
