Default Mekong Giant

This has been a strange acting guy from day 1. Got it as a very nice pup from Larry and potted it up asap. Dappled sunlight not too much water blah blah. It got late in the season so I didn't plant it. Stayed in the kitchen all winter which wasn't more than 3 months and did good. It survived but didn't grow. March got here and it was warm enough to take them out for a stroll and a drink of water. I guess I damn near killed it getting frisky with the water but I left it alone for a few more weeks. Planted it in a fresh pot and it started growing a bit. Put it in the ground about 6 weeks ago and it was doing nothing, As a few of you said it started growing fairly good there (finally) and now this little dude is pushing a pup. I guess it's gonna roll. No name yet, might go with Frank Shu....
