These were very popular in the 60's. I still see some near buildings close to lake Merritt. I have a small cutting of one in a gallon pot. Taking it's time though..

They grow fast if you fertilize and water a lot. I took a little cuttings off a plant that was frozen back in the 1990 freeze by the old Hayward Civic Center. The side-shoot was only 4 inches tall in spring of 1991. It grew to be huge monster by 1999. I sold it to Sonny Garcia, who was a famous garden guy in San Francisco.
