it easily will start from pieces of it. alot of people that have older specimens of it in their yards will usually gladly give it away, as it usually can take down a tree with its weight over time..

save our indigenous and endemic Hawaiian Plants... learn about them, grow them, and plant them on your property, ....instead of all that invasive non-native garbage I see in most yards... aloha


After driving that stretch of the Red Road 2 to 3 times a year looking for that dragon fruit patch, I finally did it by bicycle today and found them. It's easier to rubber neck from a bike than while driving a car. I will be going back and getting myself some cuttings as soon as I figure out where I want to put them.
Thanks.
Be warned - There are many, many fire ants in the brush around them.
I've become spoiled by their absence on our lot.
