Impressive newcomers and some old reliables
Some of new to me varieties are very impressive thus far. Although I have not picked any fruit yet, as it is too early for my area.
Russian Bogytar - Large robust plant with many blossom trusses, and setting fruit. 4 so far, which is a lot considering our weather. Regular season, this would be a higher number. Hope it tastes good. Chris Ukrainian - See above. Moravsky Div - Setting many fruit and has many trusses. Weather doesn't seem to bother this one as much, as sets fruit readily. Vorlon - Beautiful plant with lots of blossoms. Only one fruit so far, but maybe more coming. Maya & Sions Airdrie Classic - this is a Brandywine and Stupice cross from Jeffery Casey. It seems to set fruit readily from its many blossom trusses. Yasha Yugoslavian & Kosovo - not showing any fruit yet, but sure do set out a lot of bloosoms and grow like crazy. The old standbys - Eva Puprle Ball, Sioux, and Break O Day - these three are very productive and very reliable. Sioux and BOD set fruit like there is no tomorrow, and all three taste great. |
