![]() That's awesome to see! Are you going to try them once they're ripe? As you know, they're only "non-edible" because they have seeds, not because its poisonous! haha, I love to see it.
There are a lot of growers who never see the Basjoo flower! |

Mine were on a 2-5-year bloom cycle for mature plants, but an odd wet freeze-thaw cycle this winter decimated many local zone-pushing bulbs, perennials, and tender plants. So I started with small 2-3 year pups that survived which will take a few seasons to mature. |
