Looks like this tree isn't for me, though, as it requires full sunlight, and that doesn't exist in large enough quantities in my yard.<br /><br />Poo!Louisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17692541935507155362noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4420673425798745616.post-10489284085937043832010-06-05T19:01:31.047-04:002010-06-05T19:01:31.047-04:00Louise, here's a link I found...
