So far so good

I cannot really review this very much because it’s been such a short period of time. I cannot say that the tree is growing because it’s only been a little over a week. I can’t say how fast he rose for the same obvious reason it arrived on time and it’s a nice little tree and that’s the best I can tell you. Sending a review so close is kind of a moot point. if a person doesn’t have time to find out how The product performs it doesn’t seem logical to request one. Now maybe in six months if you send back a question here I will be able to fill it out better. Thank you.

Beautiful Olive tree!

I was afraid it might not be okay in the very cold temps we've been having at night lately, but I planted it in the ground, and it has been thriving along with the apples and plum and blueberries that were already doing well. Better than the fig trees that I thought were acclimated to the winters here. Surprising and wonderful!
