Is anyone into making cocktail trees? I’m always short on space and always needing cross pollination for better fruit set so over the last few years I’ve gone kind of Dr Frankenstein. Here are a few:Kevin, I don't think that the cherries you put one prunus rootstock will work without 'Adara' inter stem long term for sure that's what folks are using to graft cherries onto prunus rootstock. But cool multi tree for sure.
Santa Barbara peach with: Flavor King pluot, Sweet Treat Pluerry, Flavor Grenade pluot, Santa Rosa plum, Arctic Star Nectarine, Royal Lee, Minnie Royal, Royal Crimson, Spicy Z, Snow Queen Nectarine, Tropic Snow Peach, and Cotton Candy Aprium.
Feijoa with Coolidge, Improved Coolidge, Mammoth, Nazemetz, Nikita and 5 or so NZ varieties
Sabara jaboticaba with: white, red, otto anderson phitantra, escarlate, navel, paulista, ESALQ, fruiting sabara from my older tree, grimal, Coronata 1, 2, 3, and a few others I forget now
Pitangatuba with FFF selected "Lemonhead" and "Gigante" adding on more from another collector this Saturday
Apple tree with: Bill's Red Flesh, Goodland, Orange Pippin, Akero, Irish Peach, White Winter pearmain, Pink Pearl, Winter Banana, Dorsett, Anna
Another look at the cocktail, it's just unhappy right now due to winter but it is about to explode on every single branch
Unknown plum with all the same stuff that's on the SB peach
Because nutrients vary in mobility and the job they do the patterns on foliage can be distinctive. If you pull up a citrus foliage guide to nutrient deficiencies and compare it is usually reasonably accurate. The green vein with pale green between indicates magnesium deficiency most of the time. It doesnt mean you throw mg on to fix it up as it may be cause by too much of an antogonistic nutrient, root issues with uptake and ph. Even some undesirable soil qualities like salinity are reflected in foliage.thanks!
Hit up the nurseries in Pine Island...Fruitscapes should have some...
Quite a drive to the east coast
