Might save this one yet

started out at a friends years ago as a seedling bout at the bot gardens....

grw nicely but he got impoatient after a few years ...I did most of the care when I happend to visit and he left it alone and it had 18 inch leaves and was close to blooming I think....He decided it needed to be moved and of all things set it in full sun.Needless to say it almost died,But I did get it back to growing and was once again nice size leaves ...he decided it needed moved again but this time in the shade but of all things set it in a bucket full of water so he would not have to water...again back to almost dead every root rotted and the three or four fans fell apart when I took it out of the pot...

well I placed it in hydrotron and s/h to attempt a recovery this time thinking ahhh a way he cant overwater.True enough he did not and I went by often to flush and give a few tips and directions on s/h.Did pretty good untill summer and true enough he cant over water but lol went this time to never water and all it got was rain....well it is not dead and it is not rotted but it only has two small roots ...but look at all the lfans this thing has made it is trying its hardest to grow.

I confiscated it and brought it home and I have a feeling it is going to be a monster and lol someday I will return it to him but I intend to see this one bloom so now it is in intensive care unit....

LOL I dont know about the owner though dont think I will ever teach him how to water seems to be one of the people that realy need plastic plants.
