the Sabara 5 is supposed to be a new hybrid....and the coronatas are an entirely different species that makes very large fruits!

I'd buy one of each.

Mr Bender has tari's burgundy grape which is new being propagated by Pine Island Nursery and was a favorite there this summer (says Mr Bender) but variety has been around for a while. I bought one yesterday at Bender's Grove and have high hopes for it. It is a bunch grape cross between muscadine and northern type grape.

Here is a photo and information>>>   http://www.twigsandberries.net/index.php?act=viewProd&productId=159
"Tari's Burgundy is part muscadine and part bunch grape, hybridized in the early 80's, characterized by disease resistence and superior flavor. This grape can be used as a fine table grape, for winemaking or for jelly. The grapes are burgundy in color, 1/2"-5/8" in size and produce 30-45 grapes in bunches."

We have a very limited supply of Kampong avocado trees in 3 gallon size, This is a very late season Avocado, I tasted my first one ever at PIN when I started working there last March. It is in my opinion probably the best tasting Avocado I ever tried. I thought it was exceptional. I have a handful of 3 gallon trees $30 each. Pm me any interest. Thanks Mike. P.S. trees are small but rooted in 3 gal pots.

On YouTube, one of the channels I have subscribed to is "growyourgreens"  , Anyway, I was surprised to see his latest video, where he visits Bender's in Fla. here is the vid.

1 Acre Home Orchard in South Florida Yields Over a Thousand of Pounds of Tropical Fruit a Year


That is how I found out about him.  Have gone to his  place several times for trees.  He has a very good selection.  And the prices are low.
