So the seeds of this plant must of become mixed into some soil I reused when I up-potted my Trachy three years ago.
Last summer I noticed the POB growing just about six inches from my T fortunei. Never did I expect it to survive unheated through our winter with zero stem dieback. All that covered it was an insulated box. Here it is Aug 28 2013:

Here's to all the global warming pushers, may your winters be -30 below and four feet of snow in your driveway. Because I want you happy.
