Nice tree. Won't mind planting a few of these babies. Does any one know of a nursery that grows them?

JayD,

You sure its a F.rubiginosa?????? Looks a whole lot like a F. macrophylla to me; longer petioles and peduncles, bigger leaves, smooth fruit not warty. Sorry to be a picky pain in the butt. Still a mightily impressive tree though.

Wonder if you could transplant something that big?
