Default Re: Ordered 2 trees from......

Thanks, Austin, I guess that may have been the same batch for both you and me. I think that was about 2005 when I got these. The big freeze we had in January 2007 killed both of the D.O. from Wellspring down to the ground (we got to 20F for several days) but this past winter only got down to about 30F so I finally go one of my several plants to bloom. I kind of like these tall plants, though I don't really know that they are Orinoco either. The fruits are pretty round. I'd post an updated photo to my thread but the bunch is now covered with a bag and, being high up, it's a hassle to shoot a photo.

Good deal they worked with you on that. I figured it wasn't worth complaining to him since I'd rather try other varieties at this point now. I'm happy just staring at my Ae Ae plants and my 3 bunches (counting Raja Puri (?) and Dwarf Brazilian)! lol
