Description
Large Band Pot
This ain't no ho-hum filler plant. It's got great leaves like an excited Walnut but held high on a bare cane-like trunk. Sure, the flowers blow but we don't grow it for the bloom. Oh no, it is the late season clusters of brilliant blue fat bean pods like blue rubber gloves hung high that jazzes us. Within the pods nestle black flattened seeds cushioned by lots of Decaisnea Gelatin which gives the unopened pods the texture of the fingers of a person drowned but not soon found. Thanks to CSI and Bones, we all know exactly what this feels like.
