Do you sell scions for grafting in the winter/spring?

I have a Black Boy peach seedling as I read it is the only peach variety that can be grown true to type from its own seed. A villager in Beit Chabab ,a Lebanese mountains village gave me its fruits. What a taste. *

The reason is you did not prune that tree. Peach trees need hard pruning truly.

My property has lots of pawpaw trees but never ant pawpaws.

Didn't your mother ever teach you to chew with your mouth closed?

I'm buying a new house that has 14 acres and a pond. Behind the pond levee, it's very wet. Trying to figure out what fruit trees to put there to soak up the water. Glad I know not to put my Pitanga cherry I've grown from almost a stick there! But you definitely made me learn a lot more about grafting.

My Flavor Grenade pluot bloomed beautifully this spring on its 3rd year in ground. A late frost came and killed its flowers. Then a bacteria infected the damage and spread to the rest of the tree. It permanently defoliated the bottom 1/3 the tree and even did damage to branches. Its a miracle the tree heald 12 fruit. They taste frickin amazing! I guess i might need a frost blanket next year lol

Great these tomatoes this year. You need to let them ripped after they turn purple. If you let them fully mature they are superb, such a wonderful flavor and crisp.

They looks like tomatoes❤

Extremely interesting video! Thank you for sharing your experiments!

Nice! I'm growing Eva, Lord, & Mary. So far I haven't seen any berries yet on mine. I bought them from a vendor online in Canada. Planted them in a raised bed 2 yrs ago.

It looks a lot like superior hybrid plum.

That yellow one looks like my Shiro plum

The rootstock you took greengauge is small and lots of fruits on it, what is it. Also I heard that grafting plum on peach would bring fast results, plums get to be juicier but they live only as long the peach rootstock lives. So what are your taughts or experiences.Thanks!

i miss eating plums we have a sineguelas tree here before in the Philippines and it fruits alot, but the typhoon killed it.

As a kid in Tasmania Australia, in the 70s greengages were like lollies to us, all the fruit we grew up with, the greengage stood alone. Now, they are nearly impossible to find here 😊 thank you ❤❤❤.

Looking forward to Ordering some scion wood of both these and any others that do well here.

What rootstock are you using?

دە ست خۆش بێت بۆزانیاریت ❤❤

I straight up pretty much dont like plums. But i got a Nadia cherry plum to fruit this year. It was enormous like a plum but it tasted like a really strong cherry.

Where are you located?

I know this is a year ago but where are you located?

Can u graft a pear stem to a nectarine tree??

How old is this tree? Which zone are you in?

Around here when you use any kind of mulch, you have to watch out for vole damage. Don't know if they're out that way but you'd have to lift the mulch to see their damage.

how do you keep the deer from eating them. Mine can't fruit because the deer love's their leaves.

Man you find some interesting plum varieties Nick. Hope you have scion of Haleardi in the future. I'd love to try that one!

Хочу таку сливку)))

Those plums are better than no plums that is what I get with a late frost.

The tree isn’t getting enough airflow from the weeds

Where can I get rumyana zorka scionwood?

How do you keep the birds from eating them? My Methley fruited for the first year and the birds wouldn't leave them alone. I even covered them with nylon socks and they still got them all but two. They also have been going after my apples.

Do you put sealant on wear you take the cuttings in January on your stone fruit (to keep them from getting any diseases)? I planted a nectarine late fall one year and pruned it back and it ended up getting gnosis the next spring where I pruned it. Looking forward to putting in a nice order of scion wood for varieties that do well here in marry time PNW, in Jan.

I've grown Beauty and Methly at my last house with good success. I know many people grow Shiro here in oregon. Currently I have Burgundy with its first 20 fruit on it this year. I do have a Flavor Grenade Pluot that was blooming this spring when a late frost killed the blooms. A bacteria infected the damaged flowers and spread. It fully defoliated the bottom 1/3 the tree. Still I got about 20 fruit hanging on it.

🔥👍👍👍

Which rootstock that is cold tolerant that I can use to graft my avocado ?

Wow! You have quite a nice set-up in that dome! My purple tomato plant is about 6.5 feet tall now and I'm not sure what to do as it has outgrown the stake. I am going to have to rig something up so it doesn't break off at the top.

covering the roots with plastic will suffocate the roots and your trees will die. The best mulch would be cover crops or wood mulch. expose the roots and examine to see if roots have rotted because of the plastic covering. the black color raises the soil temp to above 40celcius and also prevents oxygenation.

Nice one. I had Romance cherries do the same thing, the plant from the nursery dies and 2 or 3 new ones take their place but can be hard to tell which is which since it looks like alders, pin cherries, even white birch. Perhaps remove the plastic to see if new ones sprout then replace it? Maybe Botanica does so much better because it doesn't sucker, just a thought thanks.

Hiya. There are areas on the English coast where sea buckthorn grows rampant, and I mean impenetrably dense. It seems the females are in large clusters, same with males.. it's not like they are evenly interspersed. What I find amazing is they are growing in pure sand dunes, no soil at all. We should believe that they get all the nutrients they need from the sand? I don't know, I find that hard to believe.. Also notable is that you find the odd one that is dead/dying just like in your video. I assume this must be quite natural for this species. I know there are a very valuable resource, I just cant stomach the taste really. The way I am currently processing them: Freeze some branches then you can bang them out on a large surface (set up a perimeter of planks or whatever to contain them) You get leaves coming off too ( I don't bother seperating). Then I will squish this by cramming it into a large pot. The berry skin must break or it won't dehydrate. I then flatten out and dehydrate. You can powder this cake in a coffee grinder as needed, and this also crushes the seeds which contain abundant amounts of oil.

I wonder if male seaberry can be grafted onto a female seaberry?

I made elderberry jam it took along time to remove all the stems. I bet that would make some good jam and not as much work.

Well, now I hope my montmorency are good. Cherries are difficult with heat, direct sun, and mostly/ humidity/disease/blight. Other than political and cultural differences the PNW sounds amazing. My zone 8a is known by all locals for extreme weather changes. Hard freezes in the 20s seldom in the teens. but 100 degree highs for a month. Im hoping pomegranates do better here!

Don't they taste how feet smell? 😁Could it be some sort of delayed graft incompatibility killing the two trees? (Or are they on their own roots?) If they're on rootstock whatever seedlings are being used might not be compatible with all scions?

Gooseberries grow well in pots too, if a person doesn't have much space. My poorman made pounds of berries this year in a 4 gallon pot.

are voles eating the roots on your seaberries? That's what happened to mine.

How old is it? And can you grow from cuttings?

Thanks for the video. I suppose all varieties are equally susceptible to the gooseberry worm that eats the leaves. I've got the Hinnomaki Red, tastes like bubble gum :) grows in zone 4b fairly well. I like the idea of growing them as standards with a trunk.

I have Hinnonmaki Red, Jahn’s Prairie and a native wild variety to Arkansas. I train my bushes like roses with a trunk of 6 inches and branches shaped like a vase. Gooseberries sucker mightily. I cut out all them so I don’t end up like Snow White’s Enchanted Briar Forest. I prefer the ripe berries. They are small but delicious. It’s like a cross between a plum and a raspberry. Thanks!

Wow, great collection of goosberries ❤! I have five bushes of Nesluchowski , love it . Similar size like your poorman, but way smaller size of the plant Greetings from Slovakia ❤
