It has set off plants and is not in very good soil. I was recently in the Pacific NW where I did see it 10-12' tall. It was yellowish and shiny in the sun.

I guess I would say this is a plant that I have decided will not stump me! So will move it in the Spring.

We have had this little guy in containers throughout our humid Memphis TN summer and through a unusual cold winter (prolonged 5-10 degree...Read Mores).

This plant looks good as ever.

We will try to have it for sale soon.
