Here is an update!

The blue java was getting too big for the pot. So I put it in the ground in mid May. It kind of slowed down on growth with the big change and it was raining allot during April and May here in South Texas. I planted it next to my fence. I mixed in some homemade and store bought compost when I put it in the ground. My soil is made up of heavy clay. It gets sun around 11 am till around 3 and again late in the afternoon. About 5 or so hours of sunlight. I need to trim a big tree that is in front of it, so that it can get more sun.

Now, it has all summer and fall to grow.

I will post an update in July to see how much it grew.

Thanks
