I posted this first photo in June of 08. Here is a pict I took a few days ago. What I believe is truly amazing is it was in a relatively small garden center out in the sticks, and there was not name tag. I believe we came to a group decision on the name but don't recall who was involved. I know I found it in Anderson's book and that seemed to nail it down. It certainly seems to like it here although it spends the winter indoors. It has little cold tolerance.

This is what it looked like in '08 when I first got it.
