A friend of 30 years

A little bit of a toil in finding material today but determination has paid dividends I think.

Let me introduce an old friend who I will have known for 30 years next year. Originally purchased in Marks & Spencers in Plymouth, it rested in not much more than a 10 cms (that's 4 inches as I recall) pot.

It has lived beside me in four different houses and 20 years ago travelled 500 miles to reside in Scotland where it met it's friend, abandoned by the owners of my previous house. Both are thriving and huge but the plant in this blip is now 80 cms across and sits on it's own table beside a north-facing window in full view of it's chum across the room!!
