I've read that AG leaves run around 22" across. How big do the Big Max leaves get? Mine are running an average of 15" and I measured one at 17" wide.

Thanks!

28"? Wow, thatsa big leaf! I was under the impression that the bigger the leaf the more the plant would thrive, but I guess you just blew that theory out of the water :)

None of mine are in the shade and the big one I measured is in the hottest place in my yard -- the deck.

Thanks for your reply :)

The leaves on my plant fluctuate from 12" across to over 30" across. The smaller ones are in the middle of the patch where there are a lot of leaves, so they grow smaller. The largest leaves are at the end of the main, where it was terminated. The largest leaf on the plant is the last one right at the end: 32-33" across.
