| Anyone growing it?
I was given a second or third year TC of it last year. It is from a cross of 'Herb Benedict' x 'Sagae'. Herb Benedict is from a cross of 'Dorothy Benedict' x 'Tokudama Aureonebulosa'. The HL states that it is a slow grower which must be from the Tok lineage. I was just wondering how this grows for others. Is it one that I should just stick to the side and wait 20 years or does it deserve a place of prominence? |

| jim wilkins with sandy .... saw the biggest one they ever saw.. in my yard.. jim didnt even recognize it ... it is one of the fastest giants i ever grew ... but its bed of aged horse manure might make a difference ... it definitely does not favor its toku heritage ... IMHO ken |

| Ken, are you growing Wu too? If so, how does the growth rate compare? The one good thing about where I have my Millennium planted is that it is across the driveway away from the Maples and their lovely roots. |

| One of my favorites. Mine has been on the slow side, but it is one of the few that returned in the second year with big leaves. |
