Has anyone in the area tried to grow any of the Taiwan Cherry (Prunus
Campanulata)? I keep reading good things about them, but never seen or
heard
of them in Texas. I was thinking of making an internet order.

LarryNever heard of it. I guess it's an ornamental? Do you have a link
for an
online source?
