Laurie, this tree is about 4-5m high and 5-6m wide. We don't know how old it is, but probably about 40 years - same as the house. Going by previous years experience and the number of buds, in a week or two you will hardly see the leaves for the flowers, the pavers will be carpeted in pink, and the nectar eating birds will be ecstatic.
We have other Sasanquas, all smaller, and a Japonica that's about half the size. The Japonica starts flowering as this one finishes.
