This is a partial census to replace many of the culled ones, including Blazing Beauty, Novikova, Summer Sunrise, Rebelski, Crnkovic Yugoslavian, Dora, Lucky Cross, JD'S SCT, Arctic Rose, Uluru Ochre, Pit Viper, Sweet Scarlet, Croatian Bwine, OR117, Cosm Volkov, Bushy Chabarovsky, Tasm Choc, Sakharny Pudovichok, Gregori's Altai.
Some of these made it to the end of their life cycle, others simply fizzled out, others were felled by disease, and a few others just did not set fruit or were inferior specimens. Most will return, at the very least once.

Here are my replacements, this list doesn't include 40+ or so at other location.

Hard to find faults while taste testing Cowlick's, SOTW, and Sudduth's. Life is good sometimes.

Hey Gerardo. I'm unable to see your pics? It just give me the name, size etc?

When I grew Malia two seasons ago I remember it kept pumping out fruit all season..

Luigi, are you viewing on an apple device?
I can never see my pics or gerardos from my iphone.
I can see them when I am on a windows pc though.

I do everything on Microsoft products so it may be a war of formatting.
Maglia is completely reborn. Putting out flowers like mad.

Perhaps more evidence pointing to an undeclared war. That sweet scarlet was sure pretty. I had a big one like that, then lots of mediums, then fizzle time.

Couple of drinks, Gerardo whispers, "Wanna come up and see my tomato list."

Gerardo · June 10, 2016

That sounds like the next R-kelly hit.

PureHarvest · June 10, 2016

Dang that's a shame on the Scarlet.
I hope that is not typical.
Did any of your other dwarfs do that?
Oh, and how did it taste?!

SS: Taste was quite good to excellent, shined more on the texture front. To me it seemed similar to JD's SCT.

I had two dwarfs with zero fruit, Summer Sunrise and Blazing Beauty. They'll get another shot in the fall.

Uluru Ochre had a lot of flowers, fruit set not so good for me. Excellent flavor. Complex. Sweet. Again, another shot during the fall.

Gerardo · June 11, 2016

Lots of good ones in here, I'll be enjoying them just as much as the taste testers.

I always think these colorful conglomerates would make great jigsaw puzzles.

Thanks Dutch, Thanks C_R.

Good day in the garden. Repopulated aprox 20 RGGS slots with fresh tenants.

Chef's Choice Orange x 3 plants
Momotaro x 2 plants
Gribovsky x 10 plants (2 per slot)
De Colgar 100 x 1
De Colgar La Ribera x 2
De Colgar Papuo x 2
Cheste x 4 (2 per slot)
Terhune Competition RL x 1

Soil refreshed with peat moss, perlite, alfalfa meal, Organics Alive Premium Mix Amend (vegetable compost, minerals, worm castings, kelp), crab meal, dol lime, epsom salt. Tomorrow I'll hit them with alfalfa/veg compost tea to make sure the party takes off.

I harvested my first few Agatha, and I like them better than Gribovski. I will send you some seed. Agatha has less of an acid bite, but lacks the tough skin of Gribovski.
