Mine is at 14 years in the ground. It had to grow through the surrounding foilage. It probably started flowering three years ago. I couldn't touch the bracts then without a ladder.

I've seen them produce fruits in other gardens with less stature. Guess they start flowering when they feel like it.

The peacocks seem to relish the falling seed
