Nice results so far! They get going very quickly once established - well done
I think I may have one of those, although I wasn't paying attention when gifted the cutting. The general outline and growth rate seem to line up with your specimen:
[ATTACH]101535[/ATTACH]
It's a bit hard to photograph, being over six feet (1.81m) tall! This is seven years of growth from a 25cm (10") cutting, but more like five or six because I was a bit slow in getting it potted, the meristem was damaged in transit and took a while to recover, plus a couple of years ago it got a nasty attack of spider mites (followed by neem oil burns ). It's grown over 2ft (61cm) more since then, though.
