O.K., I've got my Hunza apricots, so the trial begins.

Also picked up some South African plums, black, very sweet, and the size of peaches. They make Victorias look very mean and weedy. Remind me of the old fashioned Bells, but twice the size, so I shall also give those stones the same treatment as the Hunzas. Although I accept that the plums are unlikely to grow
'true to type'.

If they do grow I will graft scions of each onto existing mature trees to save time - can't wait for the seedlings to mature to full sized trees - healthwise I'm living on borrowed time as it is.

So, fingers crossed, please.

Tim.
