Yes it does look awesome. I planted 15 around the pond in the spring of 11 at the edge of the water at that time, which was 2 - 3 feet from full pool. Early in 11 we got a lot of rain and they ended up in 1 -2 feet of water before the drought started in July '11. Now they are a good 20' from the waters edge. They are all alive but not growing a ton. Hope the water comes up and they look that good in a dozen years.

Thinking of planting more of them closer to the water but how deep of water can they survive in? At full pool this could be 5 - 6' deep (if I ever get there)

FYI these trees where purchased from MDC.
