But, will see how this goes. Room is tighter than I like but sun, protection from wind and watering is a go. I'll just prune it to work since I don't have a large spread between my other trees. Located between the river and ocean, just hoping the salt doesn't get to it ! Appreciate the enthusiasm, appears addictive.
