Doesn't seem to be as quick to thrive as the orange tree in our tropical area. My father lives 40mins away along the coast and the Cinnamon tree he has grows a lot quicker. Seems to prefer the more costal areas in the tropics as opposed to inland in the ranges.

Cinnamon Tree

Keep well sheltered under other plants in the winter and a bag to keep wind away. My first one died as I didnt nurture it enough as it began its life in a temperate climate with 2 nights of frost a year. So looking forward to harvest.

Gorgeous, beautiful, stunning and delightfully aromatic.  All my experiments in making cinnamon stick have resulted in piles of scraps of bark.  I think I need a field trip to Sri Lanka, just ot be sure.

Planted mine in summer where it gets semi-sun to full sun, then it became semi-shade, mainly skylight in winter time. Place a plastic sheet barrier to protect if from the cold wind. planted some chamomile as a ground cover for it. So far so good.

I planted one of thses a few years ago, as a novelty. Even though it is designated Low Frost Tolerance, it has survived the black frost of a couple of years ago with no problems. It has beautiful red new growth, and one day I might harvest the cinnamon...

Marginal where I am but it has grown enough to produce a reasonable spice. Needs extra care in non tropical areas to even survive much less flourish. Keep as warm as possible, mulch and water well and cross your fingers.
