Nice looking start.
Reviewed By: Greg (Decatur, IL)
I just planted these a month ago so I do not have a lot to comment on. The trees arived and I followed the directions with them. They have all leafed out and look like they are off to a good start. We will have to see how they hold up to the winter weather that we have here, with multiple freeze thaw cycles that are typicle in this region.

I'm buying more!
Reviewed By: Rick (New Market, TN)
Got two "dead looking sticks" this spring. Both have trippled in size and look great. Only problem I had was that I did not check them for a few days and insects had damaged them. After a spray they have made a "weed growth" spurt. I am fixing to buy several more!

Success

I bought mine 4 years ago and had what looked like dead sticks also. I kept at it and they are now 4 ft bushes and produced nuts this fall! Should have a big harvest next year. Don't give up, it sounds like you just need patience
