Hi Kathy,

I can't answer your question about 'fresh graft' since I'm not knowledgable in this area. I purchased the plant from Rare Find Nursery, which is in the DG Watchdog area. You might consider giving them a ring to discuss further?

I've had mine since about mid-March of this year and believe the graft is a year old, perhaps two?

The description of the plant is:
"green needles with white dusting; spring candles are bright pink; low growing mound"

I have to say, this conifer is among my top three favorites in my garden. I had no idea it would be ranked that highly, but it's truly stunning. Yes, they are very slow growing and will probably not top 2.5 feet in height at maturity. They are a wee bit pricey, but I'm very glad I purchased it. Just beautiful!

I just posted another picture of it in the plant files. It will probably take a couple days to post, so I'll post it here as well ...if that's possible, that is....
