My ST planted as a 15 Gal I Only Plant large trees wanted fast results .
My St did great held fruit well didn’t drop a bunch of fruit like my Pickering .
The leaves where clean all year long , the only issue I had was I spotted some branches that split , after posting pics the majority say that was due to cold weather and expansion of the bark .
I also didn’t fertilize any of my trees with chemical fertilizers.
It did not affect the fruit production, it fruits in bunches .
Will report on the taste once they ripen .
Thanks Ed
