this is very interesting, the tree is pretty young (I think I got it 
from hidden springs last year as a youngun) & I did cut it back.  Im 
sure it wasnt over fertilized since I tend to be very conservative with 
fertilizing my container orchard...  thanks for this.

also, is Meyer's a seedling or a grafted variety?  if its a seedling 
what's the chance of reproducing true to seed?
