Hello, I am new to this forum and will figure out how to post a picture of this plant that was growing in one of my hubby's cactus pots alongside his cactus that he bought. I have never seen anything like it. This site is great!

the link looks bad when you get there, but if you go to the homepage, you may be able to view the plant.

The plants we grow most often in our homes are usually juvenile forms of potentially much larger tropical plants, but given the limitations of space, light, humidity, and nutrition. It is not likely that they would ever reach mature size. ___________________________________________________________________ Carhartt Jackets investment property

I believe what you have there is a Japanese Parasol Tree (Firmiana simplex). It can get large - meaning it needs to be in the ground. It is deciduous (leaves die in fall but come back in spring) and is also an understory tree (can grow under other trees). It has quite beautiful seed pods (they are winged). I really want one myself! Take a look at the following link and let me know what you think! http://tinyurl.com/6h76adI am a horticulture major at a college where I live and we just studied this tree 1-2 months ago. :-) Deva
