I have 2 Carmine Jewel trees. Both are in pots. I’m going to put one in the ground very soon. The other stayed out all winter in a pot, the roots are into the ground. I decided to leave it. It looks great, came through winter fine. Third leaf about 3.5ft x 3.5ft. Maybe 4x4? It should flower. I might disturb one with the transplant to the ground. Once mature they start to take off on size, it seems like an easy tree to grow, I heard some others in the series are not as easy. Once established it’s going to be there a long time.
A good thread on them was here. A few people here have really nice plants.
Oh mine grew fast, it was very small though when I got it. Like a seedling. For a seedling growth is fairly fast fruiting in 3 years from being 8 inches high is pretty good!
