It looks happy so far. How large will it get? We are going to grow mostly dwarf plants as they will are easier to protect or move if the weather drops too low. Good luck.

Looks happy with that new leaf unfurling. I don't know where you're locate, but I noticed in the photo that you have the same type weeds that I do.

Good luck. We here in Florida are starting to see the temps drop also. Nothing to worry about for us right now but soon it will chill. Mostly only a day or so of frost.
