It takes at least 5 years for them to reach blooming size - and that is in the tropics with a 12 month growing season. I am willing to bet good money it will take longer for you RJ. They do not bloom every year here - I am at the end of their northern range (in FL). The first time I saw one I thought it was a giant Mimosa. |
