Hatched in October 2016, so I think yours are doing great. Sorry for the fuzzy pics. I also have a 5 year old which almost died this winter in the greenhouse due to lack of water. Too much they rot, too little they shrivel. I'll post a pic when it has a leaf :blush:, which is shooting up nicely at the moment.

Sold as “True” Alexandrae. Looks very similar to a couple Maximas I bought from another nursery.

This is a triple Alexandrae Beatricea. A larger more robust version of Alexander. With a dark green trunk that can be turquoise in my garden.

This is a smaller Beatricea that I bought as a small 5 gal a couple years ago. Once acclimated does just fine in full all day sun with very little leaf burning. They do get burned by frost once it hits below 33 degrees.
