I ordered this plant in September, and received it promptly (2 days earlier than expected). The plant was well packed, (root had some damp soil and was wrapped in plastic); and was protected in the package (with a lot of newspaper padding), but in spite of that, it had dropped quite a few leaves and a side shoot had broken off in transit. I followed the instructions for re-planting very carefully, to ease the plant out of the shock experienced in transit.
Since the plant arrived during a cold spell in September, and I live in the east coast, I decided to grow the plant as a houseplant until spring. The leaves of my plant however became increasingly pale over time, despite all my efforts to nurture it, until I got the balance of adequate warmth and light right for the plant (10 hours of a combination of sunlight and grow light).
My plant is now a healthy specimen, growing new shoots and large green leaves. I actually harvested a few leaves yesterday to blend with my smoothie.
I am so happy that I purchased this plant, and look forward to it becoming beautiful tree.

It’s growing
At no fault of the shipper, but rather the time of year I ordered and my location, it was delivered during a blizzard so was pretty banged up. After cutting back a few times and since patients I am seeing new growth as the roots were packed well and healthy. Only reason for 4 stars is it didn’t come with transplanting instructions as described.

I have a Patio garden and this plant was very small when I purchased it now it is a bout 4 feet tall lots of leaves, little branches growing out from the bottom of the tree. I am so pleased with the purchase. I’m going to get more. I Purchased it in January 2023 it was probably about maybe 6 10 inches tops. And now it is close to 4 feet tall.
