Me too. I got mine last weekend (it's not even within a hair's-breadth of yours). I love your tree and pic so much that I've made it my computer desktop image; to see it every time I'm on the computer is going to be great inspiration (I hope using your pic this way is OK with you?).

Just got back from my neighbour's and noticed he has one of these in his front garden. It's about 2 to 2 1/2 metres tall and 20 years old. He said he planted 3 of them at the time but this was the only one that took off. These certainly are spectacular trees and I can't wait for the flower buds on the neighbour's one to open.
