Nice looking sharwil mark. The sharwils here are really excellent. Home grown hass is pretty darn good too, hard to say which are better.
Thanks Brad. Yeah, I've grown Sharwil. It's an excellent tree in all respects - the way it grows, fruits, quality of fruit. Damn thing is just loaded but of course it's also dropping some of that fruit load. Lamb has set fruit.
BTW, what's up with Ardith? Mine with it's single trunk is now pretty thick, like 2", BUT the internodes are outrageous, like 12-18". Is that just the way it grows? It's holding fruit at the top, 9' but I may just have to cut it down to a stump and start all over regarding it's profile, which really sucks.
BTW, GEM is blooming well and sending off a fine leaf flush. If you recall I grafted that one last year.
Reed is really acting up. Holding nice fruit but no evidence of pushing buds any time soon. I was worried because it was super late going into dormancy last winter for some reason. It's a good 6 weeks behind schedule.
