Re: [nafex] Dwarf Geraldi Mulberry

Greetings,

I had zero success on rooting Geraldi with hardwood or softwood cuttings. I would like
to get a bud stick or two of the Dwarf Issai and graft onto the Geraldi.

I tried to root hardwood cuttings of Geraldi and they rooted but never
leafed out and eventually died. I would like to know how this turns out for
you.

I also have the Dwarf Issai mulberry which is only a foot tall (on its own
roots) and is loaded with fruit. I may have a very limited amount
of budwood available if anyone is interested. It is supposed to be hardy to
zone 5 but I have never tried to verify this since it is so easy to grow in
a pot. It is supposedly a dwarf Morus alba and I got my original plant
from Logees.

That's really neat! I would love to be an apple hunter someday when I
retire, but for now I satisfy my fruit lust via this list, ha ha.

The serrated leaves I believe put it in the Prunus family and the bark
looks very similar to cherry. It's too late in the season for cherry, I
believe. My guess is plum and very possibly Prunus americana.

Re: [nafex] Identify fruit?

All features (leaves, buds, bark, fruit) are out of focus... making definitive ID difficult for me...and there's nothing provided to give any indication of scale/size.
Bark, as best I can ascertain, is suggestive of Prunus... but the fruits look very much like a crabapple...
Differentiation between Prunus and Malus would be simple for the friend to accomplish. ... just cut or bite into a fruit... single stone/pit vs. multiple seeds.

Re: [nafex] Grafted Apple After-care

Single trunk sounds best. Sell in fall to be sure of full dormancy after
cold takes leaves off.

Subject: [nafex] Grafted Apple After-care

Hello,
I'm interested to know if anyone might be able to share some experience
regarding care of apple trees, post-grafting.

Specifically, this year in New York, I bench-grafted some apples using whip
and tongue or an omega-tool. I have a couple of questions.

1) do people normally recommend trimming back multiple buds from which new
growth has emerged from the scionwood, so there is only one main developing
trunk for the tree?

2) Also, may I ask at what age/maturity anyone who is selling trees
typically sells them? I'm not sure if it would be too early to sell these
to customer in the fall and if I should wait until next spring before
offering them for sale.

I am growing trees in 13" deep tree pots and rootstocks are about 1/2"
caliper. For most of the grafts, top growth from the graft union is
between 16-20"

Thank you kindly for any experience you are able to share.

Sincerely,
John Paul Learn

Dear NAFEX member,

It has come to our attention that some people are having difficulty
finding the speakers program on line. It is attached to this email in 2
formats.

There still is time to register. You can go to *NAFEX.org* or
*nutgrowing.org* where there is a link to PayPal to make it quick and
easy. Also we need your reservations for the headcounts as we must
notify the caterers in order to have sufficient meals. If you send in a
printed reservation after Tuesday please let me know by email that you
have done so for the headcount in case your reservation gets lost in the
mail.

A limited number of walk-ins can be accepted but best if we are notified
by email ahead of time, even if only one day.

Very briefly, registrations begin early Sunday afternoon, August 13 at
the reservation desk with the welcome dinner that evening with show and
tell presentations to follow. Reservations continue Monday morning,
August 14 as well as meetings and presentations. Tuesday is a full day
of presentations with the banquet that evening. Wednesday is the field
tour by bus or auto. For full details visit either of the 2 websites
listed above.

Hope to see you there next week.

Looks like I have good fruit set in my Siberian C peach grove. Most
likely I'll have seed about the third week of September. The past few
years all the seed I had sold in a week or two.

I hate to tell you this but soaking them in bleach will not take care of
the sharka of virus, if they come from a region where sharka exists. As
I understand that it will be in the cotyledon's flesh and the seedling
would be infected. The last time sharka was brought into the US maybe 15
or 20 years ago USDA spent millions of dollars to eradicate it as it
would be devastating to the commercial Prunus industry. To bring it into
this country legally you would 1st need to get an import permit and then
it would go to Beltsville for greenhouse testing and then if it tests
free of any injurious disease it would be released to you for quarantine
growing for a minimum of 2 more years. But I feel quite strongly you
would not even be able to get an import permit to begin with. Sharka I
believe is one of the most USDA feared plant viruses.

[nafex] Wild Peach Seed

During my search for Siberian C peach seed, I encountered a site that
offered "wild peach seed from Northern China." That is where peaches
originated, I was told, so I ordered some. The seeds are tiny, about the
same size as Sib C peach seed that I got out of Canada years ago. The down
side of this transaction is that the Hong Kong people who sent them to me
avoided U.S. inspection by lying about the contents. Just in case the seeds
brought some unwanted surprise, I soaked them in bleach - now I hope they
germinate.

[nafex] Facilitating Germination of Cloud Berry(aka Bake Apple)

One bag of Lipton Tea steeped in one ounce of warm water then cooled to room temperature. Half of the seed was soaked in it for 24 hours. The other half of the seed was soaked in room temperature water. Both batches were planted one-quarter inch deep, outdoors in early Winter. As of May 10 (a few days ago), the tea-soaked seed have started growing above ground. No growth observed with the water soaked seed.

[nafex] Gooseberry Thorns

Greetings All -

Can anyone tell me if gooseberries do any significant shedding of thorns or
thorn-laden branches? I had them once and as I recall, when they're
reasonably well kept, they really don't drop thorns or wood.

Reason I'm asking is I'm tearing out landscape grass around the pool at our
new home, and I'm trying to figure out if gooseberries are a reasonable
replacement in the more out-of-the way spots. Currants will be going in to
the holes where it's more likely people might brush up against the plants ;)

-Pete

[nafex] Pomona and Pawpaws!

The Summer 2017 issue of Pomona isgoing to be dedicated to our great native tree, the PAWPAW!
This is a call to those who have anyexperience with pawpaws to contribute a report to Pomona. Whether itbe in growing, breeding, marketing, or cooking, we hope you willshare your experience with other NAFEX members. Since our issue isonline we can include color photos, so please send those along, too. Don't worry if you don't know how to insert a photo in the text, justattach it to an email and we'll take care of the rest.
Since pawpaws are not widely grown,there's not a whole lot of information on them available, especiallywhen it comes to the performance of particular varieties in differentregions. Even if you have just a couple of pawpaw trees, yourexperience may help another perspective grower.
Jackie Kuhn, the editor of Pomona, hasrepresented NAFEX at several Mother Earth News Fairs, and she reportsshe receives a lot of questions concerning pawpaws. There isinterest out there; let's get the information out.
The NAFEX conference in Tifton thissummer will have some lectures on pawpaws. A series of articles onpawpaws right before the conference may inspire heightened interestin these lectures.
Please send articles totippingpine@gmail.com.
Of course, articles on any other topicwill be welcome
Thanks so much!
Melinda McCuan Gathering Editor, Pomona Summer 2017

Re: [nafex] thesis on cold climate grapes found via local farm group

It never occurred to me that it might be anything special. It was here on the homestead when I moved here.

Why are you not selling me your grape?

Jay,

I would almost be willing to bet that my
grape would work for you. It
has borne a
crop after -44 F. It has seeds and produces large clusters
of
1/2 to 3/4 inch fruits, pleasantly
sour.

Thanks for this, Henry. I live at 7000 feet and
it's hard to find a
grape that's
productive. I have King of the North and it's struggling
along.

On a lighter grape
note April 1st was the anniversary of my successful
intergeneric cross of Zingiber and a table
grape. The fruit was good but
it seemed to
cause gum disease. A prize to whoever can figure out why.
(It's a riddle.)
