my lako heard me talking bad about it and today there is a nice fat shoot peeking out.
I'm happy about the shoot but i suspect the plant is mocking me.

In theory I have one of these from my 2005 import trip although I STILL don't have most of those plants in my possession yet - are you saying that this lad is not cold hardy? If so, I'll plan on container growing it forever if it does not hold up for you.
