Yours is most likely more green and lush than mine. This plant gets so little water. I feel sorry for it!

Very green and truly lush!!!!

That's great! Did you plant yours from a seed or cutting? Cutting-grown plants bloom within a year or sooner.

My plant is cutting-grown and is more than 14 years old. It should be more than 10' (3.2m) tall, already.

I have both. Collected seed and took cuttings. The mother plant is romping away!

Has your mother plant bloomed in the past?

It bloomed brilliantly last year (hence the seed)!

That's great! It is quite a showy flowering shrub...especially large ones.
