Cultivation Ornamental Value: excellent. Care: much. Speed of Growth: very fast.
I got few seedlings about an year ago, and potted all together in a single clay try about 6inches deep. Now in a years time many have grown upto 10 to 12 inches in height and thickness is beautiful too.
Now as per your direction I shall try to put lime also after winters.
