“Catherines Find” Eleagnus Cuttings
By far the best Eleagnus fruit I have tried.
Much larger than Goumi’s and so much tastier.
Very juicy and delicious.
Can fruit on their own but make much more fruit ( 100’s per bush) with a pollinator such as Goumi
Roots in soil pretty easy .
$4 per cutting , 5 minimum

I’ve tried rooting several times and not one has put out a root yet. Are you using hormone?
daisyguy:
In case anyone is wondering, Catherine's Find grafts just fine onto the regular varieties. I grafted it onto Sweet Scarlet with very good takes. I air-layered it off later to have it on it's own roots. However, I've had a terrible time keeping goumis healthy in Florida. They come out of dormancy very slowly and unevenly with poor fruit set.
Bush2Beach:
Would like to hear about how much fruit you have set with your cross pollination with sweet scarlet!

No hormone, just stick them in the dirt like figs.
