Just received my Fathers day present from me to me today. Thanks Ty for this opportunity. I will be updating pics as it grows here. I think this will be an interesting grow. As I live in NH it will be spending its whole life in containers. I am just curious where every one that purchased one or more are from. Any one further North than me?

any ways here are the pics. They will be getting repotted tomorrow

Well packaged for moving days

Your plant looks great! A wonderful father's day present!!

I have one down here in PA that looks very similar. My pstem has turned slightly pink in recent weeks. I plan to keep in a pot unless it gets too big and I can't wait to chop one open to see the coloring :ha:

Looks great! Thanks for showing how it arrives! It’s good to see my packing holds them in place! I could always add more tape! Haha. It looks like a lot but that is what it requires to hold it in place from all directions! Movement in the box is very bad!

Congrats! As far as I know.. Your Fe’i has gone where no other Fe’i has gone before! NH!! Haha

No more tape required..... and whatever you do, don't start using duct tape although that will really hold them in place

I’ve considered just closing the box and spraying it full of expansion foam! That would save me a lot of tape! Hahaha.

That would work great for shipping in winter.... insulates from the cold

Cigar leaf that was there from shipping has unfurled the last 2 days.
