Hi, this has been a go-to summer plant for me a few years now. I have to bring some in for winter. It gets pretty rough by spring but if any scrap lives, it rebounds amazingly. I mostly use it in quite a bit of Maryland sun with some tropical things, like filling up around the base of my big Alocasia. Maybe I'll look to see where see to try (throw) it. So bold though.
I have a relative of it, Tinantia, which has sprung up in one or two new shady places. Must travel very easily somehow.

Plant it and they will come.
