This was an expensive plant. I received two 7" cuttings that were wilted. I have loved and nurtured for 3 years. One bloomed for the first time this year. About a foot tall. For the price I thought i would get an established plant.

The BEST didn't know of the plant before I bought it on clearence at end of season based on tag info. Pleasantly surprised, I now recomend it to anyone who will listen. If I had room I would get another one nice neat plant requires very little pruning when near home. Has everything going for it!
