This AV has doubled in size since I planted him - about a month ago. Under the shade of a cedar tree and plants of petunias and snapdragons. Oh and torintina too!

Look who is happy in the shade!
And Jason is SOOOOOOOOOO happy! He is about 12 inches (or more) from leaf tip to leaf tip and look at the number of blooms! And there are seed pods forming!!
Lovely! Who'd 'a thunk it?
:-)
That's wonderful! So glad it worked out for you.
I think I will try putting some of my extra Av's outside next year and see what happens. It gets too hot here too fast so I probable won't have the luck you do but it might be fun to watch the experiment...could not be any worse than some I've done lately...lol

I have at least 20+ plants out there that will have to be dug up and wintered in the house this year (plus most of my houseplants are outside - except for the pothos and shefferella)...... I have got to get me a greenhouse! oh honey...... LOL!
Heather
Too funny, Heather! I hope the Garden Fairy send you a greenhouse!
I can't imagine your winters up there...I freeze when it gets below 50 here. Most of my house plants stay outside almost year round with just a little protection.
We do have an freak snowfall here and I usually just cry when I see all my plants getting frozen.lol
MsC
LOL! Brat... Don't be suprised when this refigerator sized box arrives on your doorstep around November... LOL! I'll bring AV's with me! ;-)
Heather
