    Everybody keeps writing 'peppercorns'.  That is not what the piece was about.  They were SZHECHUAN PEPPERCORNS. Not the same thing as peppercorns as used in a pepper grinder in the kitchen.

    Parcel arrived, well wrapped and organised no damage to the plant, very healthy with comprehensive notes. Most importantly my wife loved it.

    That looks very healthy.

    The information online speaks of the thorns which sound as if they grow to quite 'alarming' proportions ... will be interested to see yours in a few years' time.

    Are you thinking of growing some from seed?

    They seem to be a nice little earner, people are very influenced by tv adds. 

    They seem to grow quite quickly as the one in the picture was grown from seed only a year ago. 

    I can’t seem to find a site that settles on the overal height, ranges from 1.5 to 4 mtS.
