I would look for a more mature plant instead of a seedling. The first year you're staring at 2-4 leaves hoping they don't get eaten by critters.

I grew ~30 from seeds 3 years ago and their stems are toothpick thick and branched once. I'd say 10 leaves total. Now this year I expect it to double that size.

I gave over half away and the other half died so I have 1 left of that batch.

Thanks fyliu. That helps me out. In that case I am looking to buy a small tree with a few branches.
