January

20 - While most of this is old news, I wanted to display some pictures of another moso seedling plant that I have. The plant has one 12 inch shoot and a 24 inch shoot right after it. The leaves towards the end are approximatly 8 inches long themselves and almost 2 inches wide. I have tons of large photos in my moso thread, so I figured I'd start another one to show off more pictures. Here we go.

Nic pics! Excellent closeup of the leaf thingies.

Are the undersides of the leaves pubescent? ... ie covered in hairs?
