Thank you. I am wondering if the seedlings are hybrids with D.
virginiana as the leaves are not as thick and leathery as D. kaki, but
wider than D. viginiana.
I am hoping that if they are hybrids, it will confer additional winter
hardiness.
If they are hybrids, are there any special culture methods to follow?

Hello Betsy,
You're in zone 7a which improves your chances but still not guaranteed.
My zone 7 chart says 0 Fahrenheit average minimum low temperature.
That's average which means occasionally it can get lower than that and
based on my experience kaki winter damage begins at 0 and -10 normally
spells death. Can you put it on the south side of your home, like only a
few feet from your home. I have kept kaki several years 2 feet from the
south side of my house and they fruited but when it got the -15 there
wasn't enough protection.
Jerry

Hello Betsy,
You're in zone 7a which improves your chances but still not guaranteed.
My zone 7 chart says 0 Fahrenheit average minimum low temperature.
That's average which means occasionally it can get lower than that and
based on my experience kaki winter damage begins at 0 and -10 normally
spells death. Can you put it on the south side of your home, like only a
few feet from your home. I have kept kaki several years 2 feet from the
south side of my house and they fruited but when it got the -15 there
wasn't enough protection.

[nafex] Care of D. kaki seedlings
I have some seedlings started from seeds saved from D. kaki fruits. I
have learned on this list that growing these trees up to maturity is
sometimes problematic.
Does anyone have suggestions or advice to improve my chances of success?
I was planning to overwinter in pots this year and to set out in
permanent sites next spring with the intention of providing vigilant care.
Thanks,

Re: [nafex] trezibond date
Lee,
Do you know if the trees widely planted in the West, are regular Russian olive or the variety /orientalis/?
The Russian olive has been widely planted here but only the kind with small silvery fruit.
The follow up question is: if they planted the large-fruited variety, did the invasive seedlings still have the large fruit?

I started some seed from
fruit in a bag such as the one pictured. I have one
seedling. In my experience, and that of others, the plants
succumb to summer heat and/or humidity in eastern U.S. My
one seedling is a couple of years old. I will be planting it
out (it's in a pot) this fall and see how it fares through
winter and next summer. The tree has been widely planted in
western US, where it was introduce by the USDA, and grows
well there — too well; it's now banned there as an
invasive. It's quite beautiful with its red fruits
standing out against the gray green foliage.

Re: [nafex] trezibond date
That is indeed what they look like.
There is one seed per fruit, about 3/4 inch long and less than 1/4 inch wide, with longitudinal grooves.
I was told to eat them as they were (dried), there was no mention of any cooking. Pealing them was messy and counterproductive.
They were called "sultan iğde" (to my ear, pronounced: ee day). According to my Turkish friend, iğde alone refers to the genus /Elaeagnus/ and "sultan iğde" refers to the specific trees with good fruit.
No mention of Trebizond or date. They look a bit like dates though.
Turkish wikipedia has quite a list of /Elaeagnus/, but it does not include /E. orientalis/ (which western botany seems to have lumped into /L. angustifolia/ without even a varietal separation).
I don't read Turkish, but the wikitranslation does suggest that grafting may be necessary for the best fruit.

It sure looks to me like there is a lot of confusion on names. Nothing
new here. The 1st message on the subject refers to cleaning the seed
with his teeth. If the Trebizond Date where D. lotus it could have up to
8 seeds. Jerry Lehman

Re: [nafex] trezibond date
Henry,
You might be able to find it in one of the Middle Eastern grocers in your area as well. I have purchased it in the past and have germinated seed but it has been years since. They germinated pretty comparably with apple and pear seeds that I start. Also, I purchased a couple small trees of "King Red" from Forest Farm Nursery. One died on its own and this past spring I removed the second which wasn't thriving. I did save scion wood and did about 10 grafts on a few local Russian Olive trees. Most survived but the vigor of the Russian olive required being cutting back several times. With the scion wood I had I was considering the experiment topworking but if I had it to do over, I would cut the RO back to a 2-3 foot trunk and graft onto that. Rind grafting and cleft grafting both seemed to do well. I still have scion wood and dependent on its condition, I may try a few more grafts next spring. I am also thinking of starting a few from seed as well. Any chance I could g
et a few seeds from you? I am near Green Bay? Let me know what you want for the seed.
Locating the Igde fruit is made quite difficult by all the names. Poruk Igde, Senjed, Sencet, Oleaster, and Mountain Ash.
Thanks,
Jim Elie

Subject: [nafex] trezibond date
There does not seem to be much information about this plant.
The internet suggests it is the same species as Russian olive. The fruit is much larger and sweet.
A friend from Turkey claims it was a favored fruit among the children when he was growing up. He brought me a bag of the fruit.
They look like dates with a light brown dry skin. I broke one open with my fingernail and found a dry almost white mealiness inside. It did not look appetizing. It was sweet but not at all like a date.
I tried manually cleaning the seed and it was way too difficult. But I could clean them well with my teeth. The taste grew on me and I found myself happily cleaning the rest of them.
Does anyone know if I can expect good quality fruit from seed?
Does anyone have experience growing it in North America?

Re: [nafex] trezibond date
From the Elaeagnus chapter in my book Uncommon Fruits for Every Garden:
More soothing to the taste buds are Russian olive (Elaeagnus angustifolia) fruits, which are silvery yellow, mealy, sweet, and about half an inch long. They ripen in late summer. A botanical variety with a red skin, E. angustifolia var. orientalis, is familiar in the markets of Turkey and surrounding countries. Fruits are eaten fresh, dried, stewed in milk, or boiled with sugar. When dry, the loose skin of iğde, as the fruit is called in Turkey, peels away easily to reveal a cream-colored, almost dusty, sweet pulp that practically dissolves in your mouth. (This red-fruited form has sometimes been referred to erroneously as the Trebizond date, which is in fact the date plum, Diospyros lotus, another small, dark, sweet, dried fruit eaten in that part of the world.)

The info I found called it Trebizond Date, and said it was e. orientalis,
which would be a different species. One review compared the two, with
Trebizond being preferred. Apparently known in Iran and other countries by
various names, and available by mail order suppliers of Middle Eastern food
and seasoning suppliers.
However, I am not personally acquainted, but sounds quite interesting.

[nafex] Niwot Black Raspberry hardiness and disease resistance
In response to a few question on hardiness and disease resistance.
Niwot hardiness is rated as zone 5, and there are some reports (including mine and local growers) that Niwot is slightly more hardy than Jewel black raspberry. The problem with going to zone 4 or lower is that the primocane crop could have trouble ripening in the shorter season. Jim Fruth reported hardiness to zone 3, but if you are there, you should consider his Pequot instead. Berries ripening in the cooler fall weather won't have so much sweetness. As an experiment, you might want to try eliminating the floricanes to move the primocane crop earlier. For Canadian growers, In spring 2016, Niwot was offered by Strawberry Tyme Farm and Wiffletree Farm and Nursery, both in Ontario. Check with them for 2017.
There has been scant information on the Niwot disease resistance. There were a few anecdotal reports as being better than Jewel, but nothing I want to claim about this.

I wonder how Niwot has been trialed by anyone and how it has performed for them. Please give your location if you can reply. Thanks. -- Sam Brungardt, St. Paul, MN, USDA hardiness zone 4a

Re: [nafex] Niwot Black Raspberry Patent (Jerry Lehman)
Let me add my congratulations on Niwot! I have 1 plant I am trying
out. Due to my illness and injury, the poor thing has been
underwatered, overrun with weeds, including vetch, and ground ivy for
two years, and, most recently, the worst: passiflora. I did finally
clear out the passiflora and anything climbing the stems and, in spite
of our drought and the blazing heat, it is currently bearing a nice fall
crop. So I'd say Niwot is vigorous.
I second everything Jerry says about them (they are lanky) and they
taste ..... wait for it .... just like Black Raspberries! :-)
Congratulations to all who assisted in this effort, my thanks to you!

the original variety and I suspect now is primarily under performing
seedlings. I was under the impression that Niwot would set 2 crops, an
early summer then late fall. Quite frankly it seems to be more ever
bearing than a duel ripening season as we have been picking fruit now
for 60 days with many new clusters forming. Many of the berries are
actually dual (Siamese twin) with one being larger than the other. It is
very vigorous and I need to increase the height of the top trellis wire
to keep the cains off the ground. Presently the top wire is about 5 feet
and I should add another one 2 feet higher.
Again, congratulations and my fruit breeding hat is off to you.

Good Morning Pete,
Congratulations on achieving the plant patent for Niwot.
We purchased 5 plants last spring and have been very pleased with it. I
am planning to rip out the old raspberry bed of which I don't remember
the original variety and I suspect now is primarily under performing
seedlings. I was under the impression that Niwot would set 2 crops, an
early summer then late fall. Quite frankly it seems to be more ever

and I should add another one 2 feet higher.
