Thanks, guys! I started that grove just last year with three 4 inch tall plants in 3 inch pots! They grew to over 5 feet (foliage included) in one year with constant watering and a mixture of fertilizer. They each put on 2 to 3 pups! I grew one in a pot as well, and this year I planted it at my mom's house. This is my only basjoo grove, but I am also growing Ice Cream and Orinoco (standard and dwarf) in my yard.



Cheers,
Austin
