The trunk of the main plant is 7 feet tall, not counting any leaves. I measured from the ground to where the new leaf was spiraling out. That was as high as I could reach in the wind with the tape measure anyway. The leaves are adding another 4-5 feet of height to it.
The pups (2 of them) are 44 inches tall to where the new leaf is coming out of the trunk. One more pup is about 36" of pstem height. There are two new pups coming out from the base of the old pups. Those pups are about 18 inches tall.
The diameter of the main trunk is 18 inches around, and I measured that 16 inches from the ground because of the begonias and etc I underplanted it with! I didn't want to break anything off because it's looking pretty good now.
It's sticking over the roof of the garage now and it's catching a lot of wind. So the new leaf is already getting broken since it's windy today.
And the broken leaf I just trimmed off of it was 5 feet 8 inches long!
I'm going to put some new pictures of it in the gallery. It's crazy big.
