Default Re: Mekong Giant vs Basjoo

I went ahead and planted mine in ground mid summer or so. It’s growing far above average. The fact that it can send pups out 30' really scares me a lot! I have read they can get out of control down here. I’m hoping how I manage pups it will be ok.

Also basjoo is one of my worst growers! When the temps get up in the high 90s/100s it just stops growing. Really suprized me! I was expecting them to go crazy down here. I’ll keep you updated how mine does next year. Has anyone verified the max height? I’ve read all kinds of different numbers!
