Great company! Plant came very quickly and was healthy and green. If I have success with it this year I’ll order another one next year.

Good quality but small and few leaves

I know it will grow into a big tree if taken care of. Maybe the shipping got to it but it arrived with few leaves but so far it is recovering!
