    • It didn't make it
Style: Barbados Cherry Tree
My tree didn't make it. I don't know if it was because it was just too cold when I received it or what happened. It had two leaves on it when I got it. I'm just going to look around my area to see if I can find bigger trees for around the same price I paid for a little one.

    • Strong and Healthy
Style: Barbados Cherry Tree
It came in a box by itself. A great starter tree, small but well established. Healthy and strong little guy. Put in a pot two days later, and it is already taking off. I am going to grow it indoors till spring or longer, might just become a bonsai, undecided. Have several more coming. I had made the mistake of getting some bare root tree starters, but they were rotted by the time I got them. So do not do that. This is the way to go. ... show more

    • Delivered with care.
Style: Barbados Cherry Tree
I'm about to repot the baby acerola with love and care and a bit of water in a bigger pot using a premium pot mixture called promix. I had purchased one acerola seedling from the same nursery before and it was growing beautifully. Unfortunately I accidentely broke it at the base, while pulling the water hose on it. This time I'll place it in a very protected area, among other potted plants outside for the beautiful sun whenever the rains return and it's not as hot as it is right now. ... show more
