The attached photo is an example of the seedlings to give an idea of the shape of the leaves.  Seedling will differ from the photo.

Please note – seedlings will be shipped out of the seed tray wrapped in damp vermiculite and need to be planted as is on arrival into a temporary container with soil.  It can be kept in the soil till you are ready to repot it.  Ideal repotting time is from July till early September.

When you receive your seedlings plant them into a suitable container.  Do not bare root them at this stage.  (You can only work on the roots when the tree is dormant.)

Place in shaded area and gradually over a 3 day period move them into direct sun.  Due to the transport and the wrapping inside a dark container they will not be used to the direct sunlight and too much direct sunlight immediately will cause sunburn.
