That large potted Quất is the largest and probably oldest I have encountered in three visits totaling
about 6 months, all including the Tet season, when the Quất are the most prominent.
One of the advantages is that it is so small, that you can do, what your aunt is doing and still have
the full display of fruit in a very small plant, which still fits into any home, even when it is quite
a few years old.
BTW, if you are interested in the plant yourself, you might want to ask Harveyc if it would be
okay if your aunt let you have some seeds from a tree, which has been in the States for more that
10 years.
