A little background, my nine year old granddaughter begged me for six months to get her a T so after clearing it with my son I got her a 3"+ B. hamorii for Christmas. Needless to say that after getting it she didn't want it so instead of getting rid of it I decided to keep it myself. I must admit that they are pretty interesting and I have done a ton of reading online, books and this forum. This will be my first at 52 years old and to think that this thing may out live me.
