Very nice, Gina Anne! How tall is your greenhouse? Is your Ae Ae planted in the ground or in a pot? How large of a pot? I hope I'm right behind you as far as pupping. Your collection is very nice and makes many of us jealous!

I can't even describe how I feel looking at that greenhouse!!! I wondered the same thing about if you have plants in the ground or are they all in pots.
What an awesome plant. How tall is your greenhouse where it's touching the top? How old is it? :woohoonaner:

Please don't be jealous. I don't like to inspire that sort of "sinful" feeling (coming from Lilith, right? LOL) (No I mean it)
Everything in the greenhouse is planted in the ground with the exception of some hanging plants. The gable is 20 feet.
This is actually the same AeAe I got from SteveL, how many years ago now, Steve? It did this once before...grew to the top of the greenhouse, but I had it planted in a different location on the slope of the roof where the ceiling was only about 14-15 ft.
I decided to top it and move it outdoors, where it stayed out all of one winter. Then I brought it back in as a teensy plant and replanted it, and here it is again!

That Ae Ae was sent to you in 2004 or 2005.

hersirsmiley,
I believe you are referring to my space-age green floral design plastic trashcan that I have inverted over my Wadsworth Step-controller air intake to protect it from water, LOL

Looks like the jungle I am trying to plant in my yard, Only mine has a short season to have the effect here in NC I would also like to get a GH to take my Banana's to the next level! Let me know if you need a foster home for the AE AE pup!!! I'll trade you for it or maybe some loot?

Hi Bill,
as expensive as Ae Ae's are currently, I wouldn't trade any pups I get, LOL. Need them for "insurance" in case mama bites it.
I am going to measure the circumference of the trunk of mine to day, I am just curious how big around it actually is.
Thanks Ms Kitty, I'd let you move in, but the skeeters might have their way with you and suck out all your blood. Fortunately a new crop of tadpoles has hatched out, hope they eat all those nasty larvae!
