Anyone growing good pears in southern CA? 

I grew several types and they produced well but the flavor is no good.  Im looking to top work with some of the better types like

D'anju
Comice
Bartlett

These have pretty high chill ratings.  Does anyone have any of these fruiting or any other good tasting pears?

Thanks!

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.

 

Which avocados are most appealing to you?  Ive put the types I personally like and can also grow in this location.  I have to make a decision which types to grow for sale.  Which is a difficult choice to make.  The ones that taste the best dont necessarily fruit well or grow well and end up costing more to grow.

Reed, sharwil, nabal are superior fruits IMO but these are not as easy to grow here as the hass family. Hass is an awesome fruit and they grow and produce well here but its difficult to sell unless selling wholesale.  Tough to compete with mexican avocado production even if the fruit here are higher quality. 

Lamb and Gem are highly productive, but they are B grade fruits.  All of these have some tradeoff. 

Paypal switchied their shipping center usps application over to a 3rd party.  Has anyone had any luck using the new shipping software from paypal?  Seems like thry totally broke it.

Plant them now, graft them in winter.

These are leftovers from my plantings this year.  This is the size tree I plant out then top work in winter.

5$ plus postage.

I have other varieties, if you have ones you want let me know.  The nabal look good for grafting now if you live in the coastal area.

 

What would you add to a new tree to get the ball rolling?  How to encourage fast root development?
