Well, the trees are now two years old. One has been adopted by our landscaper, and he reports that it is flourishing. Mine lost a few leaves -- and had some browned out -- but the tree is healthy, and almost ten feet high. It is also sending out new branches along its trunk, but I am just letting them grow, (I should probably cut them off.)

I had been advised that it would be many years before the tree would bear fruit -- but, lo and behold, it is sending me advance notice that something is cooking.

This is the first of several bud tips that are starting to show. Some winged things are sniffing around them, but the buds are still tightly closed.

Does this mean that I may have fruit this year? It is barely two years since I first planted the original seeds.

Experts wanted.
