The only truly new one to me I am going to try this year is Red Brandywine. Hope I can get a good graft of it on one of my rootstock otherwise it would probably die of fusarium. I'm also looking forward to seeing how some of the new rootstock I am trying this year will affect growth, production and taste on my favorites.

Chinese Purple. Garden Boy sent it to me a couple of years ago with rave reviews about taste and productivity and I have never gotten around to growing it until now.
Kellogs Breakfest - Another that I have never gotten around to growing. Sweet Million - Its been over a decade, but the seed came up! Pale Perfect Purple - planted too late last year and the heat got it. |

Likely one last try at germinating some Elbonian Mud Ball (F2) seed. I'm only looking forward to a long struggle toward getting some plants with fruit.
No way am I looking forward to tasting those awful things. Oh yeah...Dester, too. Dr. Lve Apple |
