A couple of pictures of my Patupi, in which flowered/bloomed on December, 2016.....













As Ty mentioned, Patupi is very sensitive to cold!.....Even we have a mild winter on South Florida comparing to you guys that live up north, the second crop of Patupi (currently growing pup) did slowed down growing on the winter months....After the third week of February, 2017, it just took off growing, once the weather started to get warmer!.....Now Patupi is approx. 7 ft. tall and growing fast....It should flower at anytime!....Patupi usually flowers/blooms at 8 ft. tall!....


My hat off and my respect for you guys that live up north, growing The Patupi and other 'Nana varieties as well!..... Zone Pushers!....
