Wigandia carascana. (Wigandia carascana.)

I long story on this. I try to be to the point. A holy grail plant that took years to find. A few years later when I had? It was be careful what you wish for. It grew fast and rangy.
So,I cut it to knee high stumps 2 years ago. Now,its looking fine,blooming.
In the Campanula family. A giant tropical relative native to Mexico and C.A. Interesting? Some carry a wallop of a sting to the touch. My clone is stingless...alive. I touched once what was dead for weeks (pruned) and it gave me a jolt of needles. No rash, thank God.
