I have a few 16 year old plants in the ground that don't look that good.

I bought 2 plants, about 25 plus years ago. Kept one in a pot in the bathroom, with a skylight, and it only died last year, at about 8 foot tall. Mealy bug was always a problem.

I just checked the other one in the garden, and its only about 4 feet, and looks happy. I am in Sydney.
