Not always true. While I feel that "I" could grow any variety here in this area, I have friends who tell me some of the plants I give them just won't work for them, not sure why. I think one has to educate themselves as to the differences and then make their own choices when it comes to something that will take about 2 years to see the fruits of their labor, especially in a small yard like mine. I wish I could back in time and plant some different varieties than the ones I first chose. That was a lot of time wasted time waiting for fruit I didn't much care for.
A trip to Jon's place in San Diego is a good idea, he always has several varieties ready for tasting and you can see the mature plants first hand. You can even buy some pups while your there!
