Abstract: It was observed recently with Dahmani and Futer that the growth-rate of an infinite index quasiconvex subgroup H is always less than the growth-rate of G. A celebrated theorem of Corlette states that a quaternionic hyperbolic lattice G has the property that any infinite index subgroup H has growth-rate uniformly bounded away from the growth-rate of G. In contrast to this,

we show that when G is the fundamental group of a compact special cube complex there is a sequence {H_n} of infinite index quasiconvex subgroups whose growth-rates converge to the growth rate of G.
