Fruit production on my yellow edulis varied greatly over the 5 years that it was in the ground. I did get somewhat better results by hand-pollinating, but not enough to justify the effort. This year I removed the plant because fruit production fell to practically nothing. I may re-plant from seedlings or from cuttings, but I'm considering just replacing it with something else - a nitida, laurifolia or maliformis maybe. Fruit quality was good, but it's not my favorite fruit by a long shot. Still have Possum Purple. It has smaller fruit, but it's much more productive and slightly sweeter.
