I started some seed from fruit in a bag such as the one pictured. I have one
seedling. In my experience, and that of others, the plants succumb to summer
heat and/or humidity in eastern U.S. My one seedling is a couple of years
old. I will be planting it out (it’s in a pot) this fall and see how it fares
through winter and next summer. The tree has been widely planted in western
US, where it was introduce by the USDA, and grows well there — too well; it’s
now banned there as an invasive. It’s quite beautiful with its red fruits
standing out against the gray green foliage.
