I never know when this will flower, it keeps doing it at different times of the year. 2 flower stalks on this. Fortunately it is below a terrace, so it is almost eye level and not 20 feet up.

No need to be jealous. This one will never be moved or even divided. The roots are very deep and I can't get a side shoot to come off with a viable root. I am trying to cut all the trees around it so there will be more sun, but that is also a huge job.

Beautiful, amazing!

Thanks. It's different to have to look so far up to see a flower.

Wylie- GBOP trunks can be cut...and rooted like giant cuttings. A way to start a new tall plant without the long many years wait.

I will give it a try. My plant still has only one flowering stem, but lots of side shoots.
