Yeah, the australian brush is more of a novelty for me than keeping as a real tree. My girlfriend is Australian, so it's more along the lines of keeping it for that reason than anything. It's my understanding that the tree is capable of producing edible fruit, so I'm curious to see if I'll end up with any. I'm still jazzed about having a bloom on it though, hehehe.

I hadn't thought about keeping a plum, maybe I'll have to look into that. I have a tendency to read voraciously before getting into a new tree. I guess I'll just go through my usual internet/book research until I find the proper cherry tree type I'm after and then see about keeping it if my skills are up to the task.
