I’m so excited for this Thailand Giant! It’s exactly what I’ve been looking for to make my Southwest garden “pop” with a tropical touch! This is my second time ordering the Thailand giant. Sadly, I lost the first one when I repotted it in soil with poor drainage. I ordered this new one, and WOW WOW WOW! Thank you Wellspring Gardens for sending me this beautiful plant. I’m so happy to be a repeat customer and look forward to expanding my garden collection. ❤️

For $17 a piece I was expecting a bigger plant instead of the little twigs I received I can't see how they will amount to much this year oh well live and learn!
