Personally, I think Dr. White tastes good and supposedly it is one of the more cold hardy varieties, keep it and graft more on.

***HOW many you mail to will be kept confidential, it isn’t about HOW MANY, it is about the SPIRIT, and the fact that you shared some HOLIDAY CHEER with another !!
7. This is a "secret" swap...but PLEASE put your return address on the envelope(s)..and screen name, so everyone can be thanked. The secret is to be, until they receive their card!
8. Homemade cards were the best last season...but send store bought, or homemade!! I loved the ones the kids made
9. YES....some people may receive multiples of the same seed, but the best part is...it may be a different color, or variety...ALSO, they can use them to trade later!
10. You MUST come to the forum and thank those that mailed cards to you. Please be thankful and gracious to those that take the time to mail!

THIS IS A WONDERFUL WAY TO SHARE IN THE SPIRIT OF THE HOLIDAYS AND BRING SOME CHEER TO OTHERS!! YOU CAN CHOOSE TO MAIL ONE CARD, OR 100...IT IS YOUR CHOICE. SO POST YOUR WISH LISTS, AND ALLOW SOME HOLIDAY SPIRIT INTO YOUR LIFE THIS SEASON !!!! (must be a member in GOOD standing)

I’d love to see everyone getting something in the mail but I’m very limited on time so YES, there may be unfulfilled wish lists…unless someone wants to step up and help me.
| Cherimoya tree with 200 plus fruits blown into 2 parts by once in every 50 years wind in San Gabriel Valley Dec 1, 2011 | |
We have numerous mango trees blooming like crazy at Pine Island Nursery. NDM started blooming about 3 weeks ago, Rosigold about 2 weeks ago, and just noticed our Edwards all starting to push blooms yesterday. Man it is really early, I figured most of these trees would want a rest period with all the fruit they produced this summer, like Duracell batteries, they just keep going and going and going!!!!
congrats though.... remember how low and bushy Leo's NDM tree/bush is?Interesting reading some of the post regarding the Lisa not being a good producer. Yours looks like it is producing at its max and there are a lot of fruits on it.
this year the tree went crazy....found a few almost ready
