When the top on these trees stretches out like that they are in full blast off mode.
Mine grew 4' without much rainfall at all,I bet you if we had a wet year 60+" rainfall
like we had a few years ago mine would grow 6-8' in one year.
Yours will at least double next year if that leader stays intact!
