    My personal definition. In ground, 14ft tall with at least 6 stems.

    In my opinion, it needs to be in ground and capable of surviving without you. I have a lot of cacti but they would all die without me, if it doesn’t “stand” on its own two feet then I won’t call it a stand.

    According to Paragraph 12; Subsection C of Federal Stand Law, it should be taller than you and have more offshoots than you have fingers. Kidding. I don’t think there’s a definitive definition in real life.

    I always imagined big outside stuff is a stand. Unpotted.

    In ground, spreading several feet in diameter on its own.

    Even better if fallen branches have logged to “walk away” from the main stand. AFAIK rooted fallen branches are the primary way trichos reproduce themselves through clones, as survival of seed in the wild is incredibly low

    Is #2 Ogun?

    What’s #1? Achuma?

    They’re all stands to me!

    None of this matters at all. He with the most specific answer officially loses this one.

    I think r/Threewisemonkey It on the head. Inground and flourishing.

    Anything in a pot or only a few feet tall is a “mini” stand
