Keep it happy, and someday it could put out fruit, which like the name says is quite delicious.

Hopefully it'll fruit sooner than later,I don't have much space as it is ๐Ÿ‘€. It'll also be interesting to transplant this beast.

Wow, how long did it take to grow?

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago

I think between 2.5 and 3 years old, I've obtained it as a fresh cutting.

Get the tape measure out and start keeping track.

Mine is a cutting from a plant my grandmother started in the 1950's. I have had it most of my life. I still measure every new leaf.
