Getting better, that picture is 17.778" x 13.333".
What kind of tree is that planted next to?

The plant is still movable in a big pot but has pretty much outgrown its cart.
So it is parked next to one of two poplar trees that shade my house. I have pruned them to be heavy on the side away from it and cross my fingers in wind storms. They were big when I moved in almost 50 years ago and the great cooling they provide comes at the price of mucho leaves and a root-bumpy lawn. I am hoping the flowering process finishes before the first frost. Recent reading has revealed what an amazingly complex thing that process is. It does resemble an asparagus spear at this point and is related distantly. |

Yeah, anytime one of these flowers anywhere it always makes the news because the whole process is so fascinating. It's like a flying saucer landed and left this crazy plant behind.

Gaining 1 to 2 inches a day, It has little branch starters inside the new leaves,
It knew how to do this, now we'll see about branches and flowers. It is using all of its 45 years of storing energy and resources. Reminds me of salmon. Feeling like Goldilocks with picture size. |

I hope that pot doesn't tip over from the extra weight on that side.

Freshly overhauled. Never re-potted. I ain't as good as I once was, but I'm as good once as I ever was.
