We have 2 trees, both are a few years old and still rather small. We are in Sydney 7km from the ocean and get no frosts.

Very slow growing tree but it always looks healthy.

They sure can grow in Sydney. I'm near West Ryde and have had one growing in a pot since I planted it as a seed in 2013. They tend to shut down over winter and not grow much until spring hits. They lose a bit of their green colour and can get a bit of frost damage too, but they survive fine and come back over the spring summer season. Now they are notorious for how slow they grow in the early years an =d how long they take to fruit, still no fruit for me but I'm hoping for some this year or next, and remember I grew mine from seed. In any case I recommend having a go. The attached picture is of mine, the tree in the pot at the back of the photo.

Wondering if any of you have an update? :) How are they growing, any fruit yet? Wondering if its worth getting one or better to get a madrono instead.
