Thanks for the scions, Brad! They arrived in great shape. Got my trees grafted up today. Unfortunately, it was freezing cold today and the parafilm didn't want to stick to itself. Anyway, I have a feeling that most of them will take. Thanks again!

Give the buddy tape a try, its a lot softer than parafilm.  I wrap my scion in buddy tape, then just wrap the graft unions with just flagging tape because it pulls tight and comes off easy.

I think I have got everyone who contacted me invoices.  If not, send me another message.  I have been busy with this and other stuff the last week so I appologize if anyone didnt get a response who should have.

4 different guys named Juan contacted me for scions.  I think I got all the Juans covered.  If any of you guys named Juan didnt get everything sorted, please email again I will get you straightened out.

Thanks!

Thanks, will look into getting some. I noticed that the quality of parafilm varies on temperature - when its warm it is easy to stretch, vs when it's cold. Probably occurs because it is wax based.

Will take orders now and start shipping after the new year.  If you want to have it shipped later in the year I can set a reminder in my phone and ship in February also.  Will not be shipping after February.  January and February seem to be the best time to take scions here. 

Please send a PM with your list and include your email address so I can send you an invoice also please.

Thank you Brad! Excellent scions, arrived quickly (Wednesday) and in great condition.
You must know something about my grafting success rate. :-\  Very happy with the transaction and looking forward to sharing the results.

I dont know whats going on in Texas but the packages are taking 5,6,7 days for a 2-3 day priority service.

Just a PSA, shipments are not going well to TX.

Mishandling of the packages does happen.  I am sure customers in Texas would understand.  Thank you for being a valuable member to the community.

It’s been slow here all holiday season. I tried to swap to UPS that was worse! 5-6 days minimum from either coast with priority mail right now

Scions received today, thanks Brad! The avocado scions I got from you last year ago are growing out nicely.
