Gulfgardener, I noticed the same thing when I first grafted the DMOR9 from a plant I purchased (for $150) since no one was selling cuttings at the time. My first few grafts failed, I thought it was me, but nop, it was just a harder variety for grafting like the White Pakistan and Red Himalayan. So when the timing is right, it will graft fine. Also I do notice that the DMOR9 once the graft takes will grow out fast. I have an in-ground Black Pakistan tree with Australian Green, Red Himalayan, DMOR9, Sangue e Latte, Thom's Super Pakistan all grafted (1/23) and the DMOR9 has fruits on it now. The slowest graft to grow is the Sangue e Latte, still has not shown any new leaves (scion still alive). This one is the most difficult to graft, but timing is very important when grafting it.

Don't give up on the DMOR9, it's a good one, fruits are supposed to be one of the best tasting long red berry. By next year all my DMOR9 grafts will be large so just send me a message and I can sell you some fresh good scion wood for grafting. I purchased my DMOR9 tree from an old collector/ebay seller who tells me this is the best tasting red fruited berry.

I'm trading my large tree with all these grafts to a friend on this forum for a special Lychee he has.

I am hesitant to give JT more positive feedback, as don't want him to get inundated with requests to the point he can no longer help me =)

Having said that, top notch collector and person to work with! So happy with my trees, they are good sized and handling the bright April sun light champs. You rock JT!

I really appreciate the kind words. I'm always happy when I can put my trees into the hands of other growers who will appreciate them!

Jim, yes that is the one. Eyeckr sent me some Lemandarin seedlings in the past (as well as fruit) before I had the one you gave me, that I had planted in my yard at my house in Gladstone (I had at least one planted outside), Oregon. However, due to the divorce and my ex keeping the house and buying me out, I wasn't able to keep it/them. I believe I gave them away (along with some other plants) to a guy who lived close to the area who also grew hardy palms and subtropicals (he had a YouTube channel, so I contacted him. My ex was just going to dig them up and kill most of them, unfortunately, so I wanted them to go to a good home, if possible). I was very surprised the Lemandarin seedling made it, even under the snow line, with the cold that we had at my place. However, the very small new growth is gone now, so I think a slug might have gotten it. Not sure if it will survive, but we will see. If not, I can probably locate another and try it again. I think it is worth growing in our area.
