Lol... not sure if that was intended for the op or me, but mine are doing wonderful. I had them inside over winter and they grew out a foot and a half. Pruned early spring and moved them out when temps were good and they need pruning again. You don't persist in this hobby without knowing the trees are going to have some demands that you need to meet. heheYou can expect some variation on the basic theme in any plant, and you seem to have more than typical, but FT are well know to punish owners for moving them around, or otherwise disturbing their environment. Get used to it. You have a new master.
