That is very pretty LLL. Mine has a few shoots from the bottom which I tend to cut off so as not to weaken it even more. Maybe I will let one of them grow on and see how it does. Maybe it can replace...

Well the freebie magnifier arrived this morning. Same as the one I purchased and it was posted direct from California.

Jolly good customer service I call it :up
