I got a small swamp cypress today for $2, trunk base approx 2cm, how long would it take (grown in a pot, plenty of water and ferts) to get up to 10-15cm trunk base?

Hi John,
That's a hard question to answer.. There are many things that can play apart in how quickly it grow, but generally speaking it will get to that size quicker than most species
Under the right conditions perhaps 3 years.
