Default sold as Brazilian

Here's my "Brazilian" sporting a new cigar leaf. I purchased it in a 5-gallon pot from Walter Andersen Nursery in Poway last fall. I'm not sure who their supplier is.

Congrats.
Would be more than perfect with some more leaves to support the emerging bunch to fill in. Good luck and keep us posted on how it goes.
