Default Pretty sure this is a Tall Orinoco now

Digging the Orinoco for under the house storage, this was my biggest, and I had to split it into 3 stems, because of weight, and the root ball not fitting through the crawl space hole. The total plant spread out on the ground was 17 1/2 feet long to the tip of the leaves, not including the root ball, and has a 10 foot Pstem, also not including the root ball. I was uncertain about this being a tall, or dwarf, but I am pretty sure now its a tall lol. It is still not showing any signs of a bloom. Orinoco's like Oklahoma evidently. It had non visible pups grow to 7 feet of stem in about 3 1/2 months, they also dont seem to mind clay, this one was grown in all clay with about 2 gallons of manure mixed in the hole.
