Was in a garden last night which had sky high bamboo timber growing in it, the shoots (roots?) had raised the paving stones, couldn’t get over the density of the body of that plant, like growing furniture! Then at the top it thins right out and if you only ever looked up it would never disappoint. There’s was also another plant that had this massive leaves beginning with P. There was a few year old spicy arugala that I took a nibble off, hot as chili, due to its age, the friend said. I am renewed in my vigour to defeat the slugs after seeing this place. I only have a box, but a box is a whole box and with a more determined breed of plant, perhaps rubble and companions can be overcome.
