I have had this plant for over five years,It grows very slow ,The big pod one year died but ayear later it grew back. Now that is not the seed pod ,In the picture you can see a dried leaft,that was the seed pod .I have tried some times to get seedings growning ,but I don't know the type of wood this grows in .It doesn't grow in the soil .But I was able to get one seedling from it but it's 6months and not growing .
I love this plant so much ,I'm afraid one day it life will be over and I will not find another one or get a seeding to grow. Help me to find this plant and the wood it grows in as wellas the name. as you can see it is growing out of this wood ,I have to put a tie around it ,and I did buy it in the snail shell .
I have posted 3 pictures
Thank -you
