My plant was growing into a behemoth that finally had to be moved up to an 8″ pot and then I had to engineer a trellis to work with it. What puzzled me was how could I have such a large plant and never been able to spot a peduncle on it. I felt that there must be some missing element like day length that was not allowing it to want to form peduncles and bud up. I finally got so frustrated that I reached out to Julie Kennedy from the UK to see if any of her European connections had been able to flower it and to find out there secret.
