About 3 ft tall, 2" trunk. Not as big as the picture looks.

The pic makes it look almost Christmas tree size.

Yep, stupid phone pics. And the original price ought to have been for a 15 ft tree.

$330 would be tough for me to pay but $50 not so bad.

Looks pretty good cleaned up.

Trimmed it up. Removed about 1/2 of the foliage, more than I had planned but I think it looks good. Planning on a repot next spring depending on recovery.
