Wow - cool! I had to Google this tree to find more about it. It is an evergreen. Bonus! And yes, it does have great bark. And it is a fast grower (?). Are there any drawbacks? What is the lifespan? Is it brittle or hardy? Perhaps this should go on a list when people come to the forum and ask for tree recommendations. It looks like a winner!
