I have one and it is doing well here. Almost 20 feet tall. However, I cannot find any source to buy more trees. The more Iook and do not find results, the more I want some. Did find a company in NY selling large lots of seeds. I do not need lots (so I did send them an e-mail asking for a small qty.) Would rather have trees than seeds, of course. Any one here know how and where I can buy some of this tree? Any help will be appreciated. Gene

Greer Gardens lists it in this year's catalog.
They list a cultivar also.
