Am wondering if you grew sapling from a seed or cutting. I have cuttings but do not know how to propagate them or how long it takes to get a sapling like yours. Could get seeds after trees stop blooming. Please advise. Thanks so very much!

From a seed. It actually didn't take very long to get this size.

i would like to know if it is normal for these trees to lose their leaves in winter, i am in ocala, fl, and my little sapling lost all its leaves after it got down to 21 degrees here. or is this little guy dead now?

Hi - I was wondering why it looks twisted? Is something helping to hold it up or is that the way it grows? I have 2 baby sprouts one is 3" and the other 2" now. Can't wait until they get bigger!! How big is yours now and how long did it take to get that big?
