Aan dankbare plant die, ondanks onze ongunstige omstandigheden (appartement op het noorden), goed is gekiemd. Inmiddels hebben we een fraai boompje van 50 cm die al een bast heeft ontwikkeld. Het voelt nog te prematuur om de boom op het balkom te zetten i.v.m. de soms harde wind. Het is dus voorlopig een huiskamerboom. In de herfst is dat wel onhandig, want dan laat het zijn bladeren vallen.
