Thanks guys. Michael that is Aloidendron barberae that was a 10" cutting i stuck in the ground around 1999. The larger it gets the faster it grows. Martin,the summers here comes close to offing it if I go more than 2 days without giving it some water. I've pushed that border for sure. Not much room for much more Paul,so its now turn what I have into a specimen. The winter has been relatively mild and the Ti Plants are sending up flower spikes. That's a new one.
We keep getting snow flurries but its not settling and is actually quite nice and sunny between! But like Martin I can only dream of a winter garden like Stans
Thanks again. The Aloidendron babarae is having its first bloom from small cutting stuck in the ground around the 1998-2000 period. A piece of Hyperzia broke off last summer and to my surprise is rooting in pure sphagnum moss. A tip. A mild winter so far. No rain they say for the rest of January after our heaviest rains last week.
