I grafted (2) Sangue E Latte Mulberry scions in late January onto my Dave Wilson Persian Mulberry (Morus Nigra) in a #7 pot and both took well and are puting on new growth (See Attached Photo). The two grafts have yellow tape and are easy to identify.

I also grafted sever other Sangue E Latte scions on my Oscar mulberry tree in the ground and they seem to be doing fine. I scions were harvested fresh from my SEL in the ground so that might have helped with the sucess rate for my grafting.

Persian Mulberry with Sangue E Latte Grafts (4-12-24)

Ultra rare Eugenia florida tree for sale. It's a big plant, almost 4 years old, about 2 ft tall and 2 ft wide NOT counting the container. If you would want it shipped, we'd have to work on pruning it and getting it to fit in a box and work out shipping cost. I'm in Los Angeles if you'd like to pick up for free.

Taste reports of this fruit are that it's really good.

I haven't seen a E. florida of this size offered before. $150 firm, if you want to outbid someone, go right ahead! I have two trees this size, the second one maybe a few inches smaller. I may have a third, just need to measure it for size.

Zills is wholesale only. you can buy mango fruit from them during the season though. Although they do pick them early as seen on numerous threads.
And just about everyone else does both.

Thanx for this info, Jabo.  ¡Muy amable!

Cheers . . .

Brian...yeah...moisture during the winter months is really bad.  The gas heaters are wonderful, but really cause a wet environment.  All of my trees were in ground, so cleaning the glass was a pain in the butt.  It was a circus show with me balancing on the ladder blasting away with a big power washer all the while trying not to strip the plants from the pressured water.

I forget the mfg of my two corner ceiling fans, but they lasted since 2006.  Not sure how they still operated.  Pretty much fell apart when I took them down for safety.  Had one ceiling fan that helped and relied on several floor, oscillating fans to move air and branches.

I always pined away about having a better growing zone to grow anything I wanted.  Now that I have it, it really isn't all as great as I hoped!  7 month complete drought periods with terribly high temps and even more terrible low humidity is challenging.  My trees in the greenhouse fared and looked better.  I do miss the greenhouse.  I had several specimens ready to fruit and I missed out.  Hopefully the new owners are following my directions!  LOL!

Just picked a grafted one up from Steve, assuming from your tree Mark?

Looking forward to growing it here.
