It must weigh close to 300 lbs if I had to guess. In order to move it we have to pick the pot up with a crow bar and put wooden broom sticks under it and roll it a little bit at a time. It is close to 5 feet tall and probably that wide across. It drinks a lot of water. In the summer I water it every other day and in the winter when it is indoors I give it 2 gallons of water each week or else the leaves shrink up and start to fall off. It is in a light potting mix with a lot of perlite so it dries out fast. I never prune it unless a branch falls off from bumping into it or something. I am so glad you guys like the picture! I couldn't figure out how to attach the picture to this posting - that's why it is in the photo gallery.

I don't know what those ring-like features are, but I advise removing those leaves and throwing them in the trash. Josh

Looks bad, so toss any of these marred, infested, infected leaves. Josh

Pluck, toss. Josh
