    I would love to get my hands on this plant, If anyone has this plant I have many things I could trade you (seeds, etc.). I believe this plant makes seeds and you may be able propagate it by cuttings (maby??). It dosent matter If I get I reply in a few years, I will still be happy to trade with you. :)

    Cheers,
    Blake
