Thanks Mark for spreading the gene pool, so that others can enjoy great fruit too for generations to come! Really looking forward to trying this one after you told us it's your favorite.
Thanks Mark. just got the Mary Ln White Sapote scions in the mail. Really healthy wood, and thanks for wrapping it with parafilm which made my life easy.
I left the parafilm on when I grafted them all today.
Mark, how many varieties of White Sapote have you tried, and how do you think Mary Ln compares to some of them?
I really like my Vernon, which came from Laverne's Nursery.
Glad you got the scions in good shape. This is a seedling I found in an empty field here in San Diego. I have tried at least 20 varieties. A lot from the late Bob Chambers grove in the County. Also I have tried all the regular named varieties. Mary lane is by far my favorite. It doesn't have any bitterness and is like eating a sweet caramel, banana like pudding. The fruit doesn't get real big, but is productive.
