Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Distinguishable from Pseudopanax ferox by the long midrib extending the length of the leaf, it's also tall with a slender trunk and juvenile, sword-like leaves. This is a variable batch with a lot of leaf variation. Plants can be promiscuous at times so it's likely a little cross pollination occurred here. Who wants the same plant as everyone else anyway.
