    At least 10 years in my collection. I had downsized it twice and now it has grown back again. A hardy plant too.

    Really beautiful. Next time you "downsize," can I be in line for a piece of the discards? :D

    I've had mine for 7 years, and it's no where near that size. You've obviously mastered its culture!
