I got my trees! Well, they are little 3 gallon things but I love them already! I got a Improved Meyer Lemon and I forgot to ask what type of Satsuma I got. LOL They were the best in the lot and he had them pulled aside all ready for me. He had so many fruit trees it was fun to look around. He also had a Key(Mexican) Lime set aside for us but we'll save that for another time. DH fell in love with a tasty kumquat tree. I have a feeling we will be adopting that tree in the future. Bill pretty much reiterated what has been said on here and didn't seem to think we'd have any problems growing them in pots. He showed us a 15 year old orange tree in a 15 gallon pot. It was about 5 feet tall and oh so pretty! I am hopeful. I have a lot of information to go by on ATP and from what I have read. The lemon tree has 3 little lemons on it and some really lovely smelling flowers on it. I'll be enjoying a tall glass of lemonade real soon, I hope!
