How's your Basjoo coming along? Curious, is this going to be container grown or to be planted during the warm season. It will deffinately grow faster and LARGER than the SDC. You aren't going to see any rapid growth over the winter, but once put out it will probably surprise you. I was considering the Basjoo, but I am stricly a container grower and felt it will be to large of a plant in the long run for me, I currently have DC thats like 20 yrs old and some young ones started from seed late August ~ Dasycarpa(velutina), Laterita, and Ornata. Choose these species for growth habits, afraid Basjoo would get much to large for the winter hual-in. Either way keep posting.
