Bought my parents one when I was in High School 20 years ago for $70 (that was a lot back then), and its still in their front yard between their front walkway and the front door of their house. Its grown beautifully and both they and I think back about when I gave it to them as a 16 year old, back when I worked as a landscaper in the summers.
