Amazing PH, thanks so much for sharing. That is a beautiful plant and certainly one to be proud of.

she or he has never flowered yet, and i think the plant is roughly 7 or 8 years old.

they survive droughts realy well, and jump to life once the rain arrives.

i have seen major in the rbg syd and rbg kew and other botanical gardens of the world.

i think the are the most wonderfull plant to look at, unique in appereance and they are living fossils, from a time before even all flowering plants appeared. a studdy of them might reveal many secrets of evolution, to bann them just because of there chemical make up is ludercris. nobody in the world is using this plant for illicit street drug manufacture, this was a stupid rumour started in the usa, and now it got this plant onto the bad plants list, sooooo sad.

great pic thanks for sharing

it's good to see what is possible and have something to compare

How tall is that bad boy? looks bigger than at RBG Sydney, but then it probably is subject to less grazing.

yes, it never get's grazed or prunned, i measured the plant yesterday, it's ~120cm tall & ~180cm wide!

Sensational plant, looks very healthy and massive for 7-8 years old.

You have obviously cared for this one well. awesome achievement!

well worthy of a botanical garden :worship:
