New but lurking for a month now.
Hello Everyone,
Lee Jones here. I've been lurking here for the past month now and managed to buy a few plants from the group here. I've mostly been grafting and planting different varieties of citrus trees but wanted to branch out to other fruit trees. I did post, at one point, that I was having trouble keeping a Cavendish plant from freezing for the past few years and have gotten good advice on protection during the winter months. This is my official introduction of myself to the forum. I have learn a lot just from reading past posts and I think that I'm a Nanahead now so i am sooo hooked. Thanks for your posts, Lee |

Re: New but lurking for a month now.
Grafting has always fascinated me but I've never tried it.
Welcome.

Re: New but lurking for a month now.
Hi Lee-
Welcome aboard the Banana Express. I'd say that joining in 2011 and posting an intro now is lurking a little longer than a month or so, LOL.

Re: New but lurking for a month now.
Actually, that would be snarky. Snarkie is my ex-wife's cat's name.

Re: New but lurking for a month now.
Joining And lurking are two different concepts. Even though I joined back in 2011, I was very active on a site called Texas Rare Fruit Growers. I, however, have decided to to look into other areas of planting and grafting.
Presently, I have 2 different varieties of grapefruit, quite a few different oranges, lemons, satsumas. Mandrins, and a pumello plant. I also have over a 100 citrus rootstocks for fall grafting. Of course, with the citrus green leafing disease, there is a band on moving citrus plants from state to state or county to county. This disease wiped out the citrus industry in Florida. |

Re: New but lurking for a month now.
Typically, one lurks prior to joining, but I'll accept that explanation.
