Author's Notes | I have grown about a dozen of these plants. They were not vigorous, never reaching their potential size. Also many of the plants constantly had stems reverting back to green (2009). Recently I have seen other plants and they seem to be more stable than the ones I used 8-10 years ago (2016). |
