Easy, no hassle, no bugs, but fruit not great. It kind of grows on you though, it is like a sweetish low flavor apple. You can make a great raisin/date substitute by boiling the fruit in syrup. I have two trees, a So and a SugarCane. Most trees are very thorny but a few varieties are thornless. You need two for pollination. Plant where you can fight back the numerous suckers that pop up everywhere. Grafts easily so you can have one tree and graft a branch for pollination or let one of the suckers grow. Get a tree for free, find someone else with one, dig up suckers and graft it like I did. My trees are low on my list but I'm keeping them. Quite a novelty.
