Well I'll be darned

Got an emerging inflo on my Aztec Gold that I almost killed over the winter. It had tip die back on several branches so using the advice from this forum this spring I cut it back to clean wood and didn't expect it to bloom for a couple of years. It's over 4 feet now. I need to tie up the green branches but I'm shocked I might get some blooms.

Great to read about the plant recovering. AG is very forgiving and it sounds like its putting on a lot of soft growth. Which means this coming winter will be critical to keep it from low temps (40s). At least until the green wood hardens

Thank you! I don't know what I'm going to do with the beast come winter. Ideally I'd like to store it inside the house though it's so large I'll probably need to keep it in the basement and this time not water it. :)
