A couple, or more, years old, and 17+ inches high.
I traded a Paradiso espresso maker for it.

Thanks,
Ken

Update 2021.
Its been 8 years.

In winter it slows way down and has almost (we thought) was gonna die.
Each year it comes back

Last winter it was doing really great. Just about spring I saw a few ants.
I put a bottle lid with borax and sugar. No more ants.
But, by then it had done the damage. Very few leaves and the leader had died.
Outside since spring it has rejuvenated and is 36 inches from dirt to top.

I've always wanted to grow one at my house. How did you propagate it?
