I signed up to get all of them

That facebook group is only for the full collaborating members, correct? Not the backers?

Hi Tam,

Thanks for signing up. It makes sense for folks who got all this year's varieties to have membership for a year -- because I will still want feedback next year on those varieties.

My inclination is to make it a 1-year membership, on request. After that, talk will likely move on to other varieties.

The facebook group is open to everyone now, and I won't kick you out in September.

What a great idea. I'm in. Fred, will all 7 varieties be able to produce fruit in the PNW or are some late varieties?

BTW, the Blush plant that's in the demonstration garden where I have my community plot is thriving and look very healthy. Several of their other varieties look horrible.

They should all produce in the Pacific NW. Alot of my early breeding was done in foggy areas, and most of the new lines we are about to release still produce fairly quickly, and show decent overall resistance to pathogens.

I would have been in yesterday as well, but unfortunately live in the wrong country... (pout)

Guess I'll just have to wait.

Salix,

Canada is added (I am assuming BC is British Columbia and not Baja California)

It's a little extra, because I have to fill out forms, etc.

Plus, we don't want our group to be over-run by Canucks.
