Yes, Mary, you are right about having to wait a long time for the
Mulberries to come into full crop.
Bob, you are also right about the gages, although I chose Oullins
Golden Gage as a preference.
As you might have guessed, I just enjoy growing trees, and have planted
hundreds since I bought this farm.
I am also growing from seed;-
Pawpaw, Asimina triloba.
Loquats, Eriobotrya japonica.
Pitanga, otherwise known as Surniam Cherry.
I have a loquat tree in my garden, it produced one (1) fruit last year after
18 years of planting from a seed brought from Portugal, but life is
difficult here in U.K., fruit-wise. We cut the little fruit in half and we
each had a half :-)
I also have about six Surinam cherry trees (Eugenia uniflora) here in N.
Wilts, which I grew from seed. I don't think I can sustain them since I
only have a small greenhouse and they're getting bigger, so I am hoping to
find a botanic garden that will take them on, maybe Ventnor.
Also I have several nice small Dovyalis caffra trees grown from seed, they
produce lovely fruit if you have the right climate.
