Hi Kevin,

Wondering if you have any red jabos that are getting close to fruiting size or less than 2 years away from fruiting. Looking to buy 2 - 4 plants depending on price and size if you have any available.

Thanks.

I have some nice premium 3 year old Red Jabos… with proper TLC they should be blooming in a couple of seasons.
$36 each plus shipping with a 4 plant minimum order.
The temps will be pretty cold this coming week so you might want to wait for a few days.
Thanks...

Do you have any corg available? I had 3. One i bought down here in phoenix andut has never done well. I bought 2 from you, and garnet and a nelita. They were doing great but then I had to move them. One died and the other is growing well.
I'd like to buy another one from you and get rid of struggling one. I am not sure if there is a way to tell which variety I have left but I'd at least like 2 for germination purposes.

New growth on the Garnets tends to have more of a strong glossy red color than most other CORGS.
New Nelita leaves tend to have a more light shrimp-pink color... becoming a more matte silvery-green color as they mature.
I have both available in seedling form.
You may be interested in a grafted Garnet... I have several coming along... having been grafted this fall.
I'll post them soon.
Thanks Andrew!

Try Japanese Persimmons.... I live in Tuscaloosa and grow Taninashi, Eureka and Fuyu with much success.
Eureka is my favorite.

Our local Home Depot... yours may be different.... sells a bagged product they call "Top Soil".
Checking the ingredients... it is primarily forest industry fines and sand.
Ours is locally produced within the state.
