To clarify; this particular picture was of a friend's plant (that he got from me), However, I have posted other pictures in years past. We get flowers most every summer.

Wow! Beautiful! Im pretty jealous! How do you keep your basjoos so green? Mine are always such a yellow/green color. And mine also grow pretty slow even in extreme (1 leaf a week or less). Im disappointed with how short they have stayed this year. I was expecting it to at least reach 7 or 8 feet by this time of the year, but its still shorter than me (Im like 5'7").
Anyways, Im really happy to see a basjoo do so well right in my area! It gives me some hope!
