Plant History/Log:
- Brought home from Bakerstown in 2014 when they were closing the greenhouses
- Had lived in a 2″ pot for the whole summer and spent time lying on its side which is why it grew the way it did
- Bumped up to a tall TC and kept in my bedroom and then the east window over the winter, not cared for by me
- Looked pretty sad after that first winter, planted in too rich soil and overwatered
- Grew outside during summer of 2015 in big blue plastic pot
- Did some pruning so shape was less wonky
- Went to school with me in fall 2015, grew on patio and then in south window
- At some point got bumped up to large fake stone pot but was too big and started suffering
- Suffered some powdery mildew issues and scale
- Bumped back down to 8″ TC at some point in 2018
- Went outside for summers, inside for winters, mainly in east window
- Repotted in fall 2019 to gritty mix and white terracotta pot
- Brought inside to south window
