Humber nurseries had some last year. They were not cheap.

How much did you have to pay? Can you order off eBay from US sellers?

I could not find anybody that is shipping plants over the border. It may be because of the phytosanitary certificate.

:lol: I found them at HD. 16.99 for a 4ft one. Beautiful. I also bought some seeds from ebay a few weeks ago, but no luck so far. I'll keep it in a huge pot this year and in the ground next summer.
