Good Story! I had this plant growing next to my carving area... it was just a weed but it had huge leaves that reminded me of a Jurassic tropical isle. The moment it sprouted, I would look at it as I was carving, wondering what it would become. As it got bigger and bigger, I was in love! The giant leaf just put me in the right mood to carve tikis. Then, after 2 years, it was dying, and I had to move anyway. I think the plant knew I was moving on, so it just gave up.

My baby is right behind my mallet.

Thanks for sharing your story!
