I have a Sparmannia Africana to give away. It is about 2.6m tall in the pot, weighs about 25kg. As seen in the photo it has not been pruned well - I cut it down about 3 years ago, thinking it was dead - then it sprouted several new shoots. Inset is its flower last February/March. It must be kept in a conservatory or other frost-free place - else it will die. It flowers every winter, and easy to propagate from cuttings - which is what I have done; I am keeping smaller plants this year!
Please contact me if you want this lovely plant- you will have to collect it from just south of Leicester,UK.

Shame Leicstershire is so far away for most of us! Have you tried putting it on Freecycle?

I'll leave it on GOY for a few more days, then offer it on Freecycle.
