The same size and manufacturer as mine, Nyboy. Our knee-wall is brick matching the house -- only difference I can see. Even looks like Maverick's reflection in the window.

I still have the installation manual. Perhaps the new buyer would appreciate it? Although I'd expect you could get one online or purchased through 4-seasons.

WOW!! Thanks a lot..... I just purchased 2 almond trees, 2 cherry, 3 apple, and 1 fig tree this afternoon at a local nursery. They got hit by the tornado weather on Friday evening and it collapsed their greenhouses and tore the front off their building. They were licking their wounds, so we were glad to support home town people with our money. The trees were $24.94 each, the almonds were $34.50 each.

probably good you got them local anyways. they are probably suited for your area better than what Dr Cummin's has.
After combing the catalogs, searching online and admiring the colorful always perfect picture perfect trees, we went to a local place 10 miles away. Especially on the apple and cherry trees, I figured if the nursery could grow them, I durn sure can!

Yesterday, I heard of a wholesale nursery that produced over 200,000 Japanese Maple trees per year was having a retirement closeout sale of it's entire stock. When I arrived at their nursery They had only a couple dozen trees left. So ... I purchased 14 of their best 8 year old , 4+/- foot tall Acer Palmatum that they use to propogate as root stock for of all of the named varieties. These trees will eventually grow to be between 10-14 foot tall in 20 years. All for the Princely sum of $40.00 . I had already pulled out a dieing cherry tree and I will have to dig out 4 very poor performing and pest riddled native trees. So, Maple forest it is !!! :thumbsup
