ok, thank you, that is good news. I purchased many bags of Meiwa fruit to get the seeds from the fruits. Now I have a lot to germinate.

I've not had it myself, but pretty much every time I've seen it under discussion people have spoken very highly of it. Whether compared to Meyer, Pomona, or Ujukitsu, NZL seems to always come out on top.

I will say however that the peel of NZL has a slight "resinous" smell to it when scratched...not skunky like a Shiranui but a little bit.

Citrus General Discussion / Re: Isn’t c-35 highly incompatible with any type of eureka?
« Last post by kulasa on Today at 07:27:29 AM »
Yes, that chart. Thank you.

I think it kinda does. That US' chart's info on eureka's compatibility with c-35 is "no information", probably due to lack of testing/trials. I do not think the type of graft nor the budding would matter when it comes to determining compatibility.  I guess the Australian chart made it clear that trifoliate and its hybrids are incompatible with Eureka?

RS, the pizza-sized jabo container is Maccourt "plantainer".  I got it at Home Depot.   The bigger ones are a little pricey otherwise but good quality.  They were marked down on clearance once so I bought a bunch of them.  I use the larger 20gal ones also

The smaller containers in the air are plastic foodservice containers from leftover corporate catering, takeout, and such.

Brian thanks for the container info! You've just revolutionized my jabo growing :)

Very jealous, you have the best of both worlds with all the temperate fruits you can grow outside plus the tropical greenhouse.

Finding a house with a yard that can handle these beauties can feel like searching for a needle in a haystack!  Especially if you're planning a move and need to consider a whole new climate.
