2.Indoors OK, Outdoors OK, easy to grow.

Very well-coloured plants in Gethsemane Garden Centre, 1992.
Zipper, the first fully-trained Plant Scale Dog.
My Mum asked me for a nice plant without spines, to put in her flowerbed.......
Flowering in an Auckland industrial estate.
Flowers 3 - 4 metres
Flowering may happen at a smaller size also, as seen here, in 30 cm pot….
…giving a rare chance to get close to the emerging inflorescence.
Some like the skirt and some don't. The owner of this one trimmed the dead leaves.
