Mine has already grown an half an adults arms-length, (not including the roots which may be more or less.) I live in very rainy Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada and the Horse Chestnut sometimes under partial shade. It's the beginning of July and it's been growing since February. So that means it's been around 4 and a half months.
I'm guessing and hoping that it will be an arms length by October.
P.S. There's a trade secret that since the Horse chestnut is a fast grower and in the Maple family, that grafting maples onto it will make the Maple grower like it's on steroids!
