Germinated:
 2021-01-13
Planted in a warm spot on the west side of a concrete wall with direct afternoon sun. Re-grew vigorously in 2022 after being frozen to ground level its first winter outside, to almost twice its original maximum size. Showed among the least damage after 25°F in November 2022, and only moderate damage when unprotected for 17°F in late December.

Update2024-11-15 18:24:19Still very actively growing and dwarfs the previous maximum size.
Update2024-08-29 06:03:14Had regained essentially its previous maximum size, with a bit more growing left in this season.
Update2024-07-23 17:11:01Large new trunk has formed with branches already.
Update2024-04-20 18:04:44Despite some living buds further up the trunk, the buds swelling at the base look more vigorous, so I'm expecting another new trunk.
Update2024-03-04 17:59:28Damage has slowly crept inward since January, but still looks pretty green on the main trunk. Still might just regrow from the roots instead though
This tree does not have any grafts on it.
