It has been abused to hell and back, and still looks pretty good.Karen715https://www.blogger.com/profile/15979479537943300181noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2481706068105246695.post-50537934490004133632011-08-04T16:41:41.791-07:002011-08-04T16:41:41.791-07:00I might have told you about the spidermites loving...I might have told you about the spidermites loving loquats.

Photograph each and every to keep inventory of what I have and track down what happens with them overtime.

It is, indeed, a slow grower when it's inside. I suspect it is also pot bound.
