Outstanding specimen plant you have there, Kevin. Way impressive.
And sorry to hear about the loss of your dog. This was the one you found, wasn't it? I seem to remember you (or maybe I'm confusing you with someone else--so I'll apologize in advance if this is the case) indicating that he was an abandoned pup who you rescued. Mind if I ask what happened to him? I don't think you had him too long, did you?
