I grew a rubber plant in a delicate bamboo basket. Unfortunately, whilst my gardening lady was trimming it, the sap rose too much and burst forth from the top of the tree. She informs me it did not taste good and she renamed it my Yukka plant!

No I don't think it will be life time as I think that it only last six months? Does that help? I might go to google to see if there is a willy willow support group forum or something similar!

There’s an awesome new sports message board called. http://www.[deleted]
I just went there and it is has some great forums for high school and college sports, including a locker room where you can talk about anything. I love sports message boards and this one is set up very well and is easy to use. Check it out!!

Why just six months? I think I'll go for a pussy willow instead.

| it can last longer if you provide regular maintenance and support, and periodically extract the pith in the approved manner |

I don't like the idea of extracting pith much...

Oooh Loki that maintenance doesn't sound too labour intensive and I do have very old granny living with me who could help out and she wears false teeth that she often forgets to wear...mmm.

| space cadet - some sort of protection (possibly rubberised) may be helpful if you're squeamish |
