Hydroid (another member) grows very impressive bananas but his climate is better than ours. He lives in Gulf Shores. He is very generous with pups. We need to get together and talk.
Yes I would like very much to meet kindred fok.
I interested in your pears and would like to see about getting some loquat seedlings from you.
I have not done it yet but you are welcome to what ever germinates.

Big Jim is supposed to be a good Loquat cultivar. I have a Fuyu persimmon but it is only one year old.

Doing anything with Paw Paws?
I have planted several but they are not doing much relative to growing.
It may be a good wildlife foil. The persimmons should work great around here too.
