Burgess is a total rip-off mail order nursery. I ordered from them once and half the plants were dead and the "free replacement" plants were also dead. Of the plants that were still alive at least one (a fruiting pear) turned out years later to be a non-fuiting, flowering type. I still don't know if the apricot and almond tree are the correct plant but they did not appear to be grafted so were probably grown from seed and therefore not really what I ordered. Do not order from Burgess.
