I should have scions through February.  But I am already getting low on some stuff like fujikawa and murashige a lot of people are asking for those and I will have to see how much is left after shipping the first batch in Jan.

The reason I don't sell scions later into the year is because my trees will be flowering and flushing in March and the good budwood is hard to find after Feb.  Right now all the buds are swollen and ready to go around March they will be past prime.  I realize people want it later in the year when the cold has past in their location but it just is late for my location.

Thanks

You can send me a PM here on this forum. 

I have plenty of Sharwil material.  I am out of the Fujikawa and Murashige.  Everyone wanted those ones.

I shipped orders Monday and Tuesday this week to most of the people who ordered.  I need to message the person in Guam.  I will PM you.

I have more of the fujikawa and Murashige left also for those that asked but I said I did not have enough, I do have enough.  Message me if you are still interested.

I have about 10 orders to ship tomorrow then I will know if there is more of the murashige and fujikawa left.  Those have been super high demand.  I will be in touch after I am caught up.

I still have Nabal and Sharwil.  Pretty much done cutting the others.  Trees are starting to flower also.

I finally threw out the last Nabal I had in my fridge that I bought from Brad a year ago. It was crazy how long the scions held in the fridge; green and plump for months. I felt like I could have still grafted with some reasonable expectation of success last summer.


My luck, I bought 3 each of Nabal, Sharwil and Reed and it was 2 Nabal grafts that ended up holding and are going strong today. I had one Reed that seemed like a for sure take on a tree, then we hit a summer drought and that tree gave up the branch almost over night; one day it was pushing growth and the next it was shriveled and popped right off the trunk.
