Tropical Fruit Discussion / Re: looking for a second variety to my Lamb Hass in SoCal
« on: November 21, 2022, 03:22:27 AM »
I just gave the lamb hass a serious prune so that may wake it up next season.
But going through the options given:
My lamb hass produces ripe fruit between late July-Oct. Some of these varieties ripen at the same time. I'd like to not have the exact same season.
Reed (also a type-A) July-Sep
Nabal also ripen summer and early fall
Hass - I've avoid this as I've only heard about how big these trees get. I do not want a monster. Though I suppose it can be kept pruned to be shorter
Pinkerton - I am reading this is a domey, spreading tree. So I'm guessing this will grow wide.
Sharwil, Sir Prize - too bad, they sound great on paper
Gem - this one appears to fit the requirements.
