After the flower buds sitting unopened for over a month they finally all opened at once today. I was worried it would result in the unfortunately too common pattern I've seen where a healthy tree flowers for the first time... then the flowers stall and never open... and the whole tree dies back hugely.

Wow magnific! Congratulations!

You seeing any fruit set from this flowering? Would love to get seeds from your variety. The 3 that I killed had very different looking foliage.

I ordered some seeds a few weeks ago. Excited to see this for myself!

To early to tell, the flowers are shrivelled but still attached. I should find out within a week or two if there are swollen ovaries indicating fruit set, or if they all drop off. I did touch my finger against every flower when they were open to aid pollination in case that matters.
You can certainly have seeds if I get fruit.
