Is anyone else growing this tree? If so, what is your experience with it? When I ordered it I had doubts about it's pendulous nature, thinking it would be more like 'pendula' with more of a horizontal habit. NOT so. This baby weeps. I've been staking it for 4 years now. From 18 inches to now -------->9 feet! Many side branches that hang down beautifully. I severely pruned off the lower branches this spring as they were crawing on the ground. The base of the trunk is thick as a broom stick but it's soooo wobbily up to the 4 foot mark. I'm wondering if anyone has an older specimen and when their's gained enough strength to stand alone. I hate the stakes.
thanks!
