I am having very good luck with these trees which develop from seedlings to excellent material very quickly in only a few years.

Interesting! I've never worked with this species. Could you post some pictures of your stock for us?

Thanks,
Carl

I struggle with photography and the steps necessary to get pictures sent thru the internet but if you will bare with me, I promise to do it. Also, I'm very busy with moving small trees into my grow bed, potting and repotting. I will try to send 2 or 3 of my trees that are now in their 4th year as well as one clump style that is two years from being a tap root root cutting. Fred
