The plant was bigger than expected at delivery and seems healthy. The delivery service however delivered it upside down, so that is a concern.

Barbados Cherry Tree
When the plant came, it looked pretty scrawny. We waited until most of the cold weather passed. We planted it, and immediately it looked better, got fuller and has grown quite a bit. Thank you so much.
