Habib, Nice little tree! I'd let it do what it wants for the season, then, sometime in the fall, I'd cut it back to about 18" in total height and, where you are, make sure it's protected for the winter. Next season, it'll start branching out. __________________ ============================ [B]Figaro Zone 10b - South Florida[/I] Growing: Black Mission, Strawberry Verte, LSU Hollier, LSU Purple, LSU Scotts Black, Cajun Gold, Panachee, Excel, UCR 291-4, UCR 143-36, Violette de Bordeaux, Ronde de Bordeaux, Calvert, Black Madeira, Col De Dame Blanc Wish List: CdDN, CdDG, Ischia Black, Galicia Negra ============================
