Re: Disease resistance?
Sorry to hear about the peaches and plums! My pear trees get bad rust and I'm about to pull some of them out because they are going to be more work than reward....
Basjoo should have no problems in Maryland in the summer months. I live in PA and my plants grow like crazy from late spring till fall. One issue we may have is if the plants get too much rain this time of year, perhaps the corms can rot. But proper soil should help prevent that.
The only other issue would be to get a proper winterization plan to keep them from rotting / getting mold during storage.
Enjoy!
