I haven't updated this in quite a while. That one cutting that showed promise did survive. After a couple of years I took some more cuttings and air layers. The cuttings all died, but a couple of layers took after a long time. The growth of the mother plant has been slow. Here it is today:
It's about six feet tall and maybe a two inch diameter trunk. Slow grower. And, the squirrels haven't been helping.

It also has some weird, angular growth habits. Goes straight up and the takes a 90 degree turn and goes straight again.
Not sure how well this will work for bonsai, but I'm committed now. I've got the mother plant plus six growing now. Sent a couple off to BNut too.
