    Edric, this thread is a little dated, but I wonder how your Prestoniana are faring? I have about 60 seedlings just 2 months old, so I'm wondering how to best care for them for the next 33-month stage of their journey, till they reach your above growth.

    In particular, I'm wondering about the following:

    1. Deep pots or normal pots?

    2. Full sun?

    3. Can they dry out occassionally, or plentiful water?
