I missed giving this one a review too, but maybe because it was slow to settle in. The 1st year it went from 2 fans to 1, by the 3rd year it made it back to 2 and the more mature fan had a scape with 4 way branching and 21 bud. This spring I see 5 fans, so hopefully it will make a show for me. It is nice and tall, perfect for the center of my flower bed. I was worried that it might not be a good plant since it started off so badly, but is looking much more promising.
