A tropical plant that needs high light intensity to succeed, is-
rather-
larger than most houseplants, and is prone to aphids. I can't see it
catching on in Britain.-

Ya, any people have any other opinion on this plant? If this plant is
selling in Britain. Will u all buy?
-
It's an attractive plant. But at 4ft high at least, needing
greenhouse-
-
or indoor culture, and prone to whitefly, it's just not practical.-
-

May I know what your mean for at least 4ft high?
Because I think around 1ft more it will start blomming already.-


I was taking the heights quoted in the article you linked to.
