Uncomplicated and beautifulIn the first year The Ancient Mariner grew just 50 cm tall. I almost wanted to throw her out. From the second year on she then showed her splendour. She is a little over two metres tall and is held on an obelisk. The growth habit is upright and slightly bushy, a bit of black spot towards the end of summer, but healthy and easy-care overall.Automatically translated · Show original
