My friend has rooted one for me as I admired it so much. It is pretty small but I am very pleased.

Linda, they grow remarkably quickly, mine bought 3 years ago is about 5 ft tall now, Dd's 12ft maybe more?

I'll be careful where I put it. Where is yours? My friend Pete's is against a wall.

Last Sunday, saw one twice as large as yours. It's made me decide I need to move mine before it gets any bigger, in Autumn.
