Thinking about a Gran Nain
Anyone growing a Gran Nain? I live on the Gulf Coast of Alabama and am thinking about buying one or 2 pups if I can find them. Was also wondering about the Dwarf Namwah. I already have Saba, Orinoco, Basjoo and a young Raja Puri and would like to add something new to my yard.
Any suggestions on these would be welcome. Thanks Bo |

Re: Thinking about a Gran Nain
You can't go wrong with any of those. Raja puri is another along with Ice Cream. Semi-hardy and good tasting fruit.
