Years ago my tennis friend would bring me jabon from Kyushu when she came back. Well, I was so happy and kept begging for more than one year she came back with a tree for me! It has grown up quite a bit. Here it is. With the cutting of the pine trees, the jabon tree should be much happier! Last year I pruned it like I used to help the folks do in Idaho. I guess I did too much as there were no fruit last year. This year there are a few blossoms which if you enlarge you can see are still in the bud. When the flower comes out I'll have to pollinate them.
