bencelest · 06-05-2008, 12:36 AM

Sorry I replied too late. I was so busy lately.
Thank you so much for your support Deb, Mskitty and Greene.
You guys and dolls are awesome.
This forum is the most friendly place I've been in. Thank you again.

I have other pics to show.

Here's Prince Ranier cherry almost ready to harvest. I just picked some.

Hey Bennie - great work and the plants look great. We used to grow Morello cherry and Victoria plum in England - but of course it is too hot here for stone fruits. Great to see yours doing so well!!

bencelest · 06-05-2008, 01:44 AM

Thanks a lot Cassie. We can not have everything. I envy you because you can grow bananas there and some pineapples or papayas.Here I have to struggle to grow them.
BTW I thought your Pisang Klotek might not make it last winter but look at it now! It is growing really nice where it is at.

I thought I'd put another pic for my Stella cherry

bencelest · 06-05-2008, 08:26 AM

I thought I created a monster. This is just one branch of my plout. I have other branches very similar to this.

Benny,

It's too bad that you have such a brown thumb and have nothing prodctive to do with your time! Just kidding, of course! Outstanding job! Thanks for sharing your pics!

bencelest · 06-05-2008, 11:54 AM

When you graft all those different fruits onto one tree, do you need to wait a year or so to allow those areas to fruit or do you just let it go?
