Recc. (or Rchg.) Honky Tonk Woman 'Chadwick'
One of my favorites and an absolute bull of a plant.

I want this one so bad. I saw it for sale at Odom's once, and I didn't buy it right away, and I haven't seen it for sale since then. How I wish I had just bought it.

LOL......yes it's AZ but it's just a regular 11.5 oz can.
Not even in my biggest pot yet because it grows up more than out. What makes it unique is those canes w/leaves are close to 24" high and the leaves are the thickest and stiffest of any plant I have, plus the orient in more of an upward attitude where most Catt. leaves grow sideways off the cane. Then add in some of the flower spikes that are almost an additional 16". Like I said, a bull.

OMG you are me hero. Yes, he has it. It't a little spendy, but I don't care. I've never bought from Chadwicks, but I know he has a sterling reputation, so I'm sure it will be worth the price. I'm giong to buy it now. Thanks so much for the tip! |
