This sounds that your location is not ideal.
I do not know the reason for your trouble but I got rid of mine 2 years ago. I found its fruit was not to be good enough since I have Parfianka, Desertnyi, Ariana and they are better.
Good luck!

Thanks!
I would like to think the statue protects the tree from squirrels

Cool, thanks!
For some reason, the white arils are not so inviting to eat as red

Here you go.
The tree is about 8-9 ft tall.
I have one fruit too!

My Austin tree looks no different than any other variety I have, I don't think you can ID a tree unless you have a fruit.

Thanks! That's definitely not Haku-Botan.
I will graft a scion and will see what the fruit look like.

Visited a friend today and saw a Pom tree with white flowers. He acquired it as Parfianka.
Any idea what fruit is going to follow ?

Wow, not what I wanted to hear
I planted it in a prime spot, I will update on my taste test when I have anything

Does anyone have this variety producing?
My tree is about 7 ft tall and is flowering, I hope to sample the fruit.

My both Sverhranniy and MV have lots of lowers, nice!
If the Spring is dry, I may have a chance to show and compare the fruit. Both trees are growing on the same side of the house not far from each other, i.e., the conditions are exactly the same.
