I've had this species in our garden for a little over two years. When first planted, it was about 8' tall and it is now about 12' tall. ...Read More It gets full sun and began blooming around 3 months after first planted. This species is cauliflorous and blooms almost year round. Since the blooms open in the evening and then drop the following day, it would appear that our pollinators are moths. The fruit, when ripe, has the appearance of freshly dipped candles hanging out to dry. Although this species is considered evergreen, it is actually briefly deciduous. For the last two winters, in late February during a span of 3 weeks, it drops all its leaves and then sprouts new ones. My experience with this species has shown it hardy to zone 9B.
