Every year it will be more beautiful :)
It is better to grow it slower- it will live longer.
There is some max size that they can reach, and that is the end then. So the slower it is growing the longer it will live.

What? It will not just stay the max size? :o Just die when it reaches it?
No more food for this one! :p
Yes, that is very sad.. thay have max size of 10-20 cm. After 10 cm in diameter you have to be very careful if you want to keep them alive for some more yeaars. I have one old one, and am giving to it as less water as I can. I never fertilze Astros.
