Ordered this tree and was lucky enough to get it in the sale. Quite a quick delivery which was lovely. The box was battered and torn, most likely by the delivery company but the tree was in excellent condition. Can't wait for it to grow and flower. I've used many online sites for trees and shrubs but this one is by far the best. Thank you.
