my seed list was last updated 12/7/14. some seeds have been traded/used since then. but I have not found the magic link to update my list. can email current list to anyone interested.

Hello! All I have are a few Nero Toscana kale that I just bought off the shelf (organic seed), and some Sungold (shelf, couple years old), and some I. alba moonflower (from my plant, a year old). Once the dust settles, if you get a chance, I'd love to SASE for the Canterbury bells cup and saucer, which are not on the rack anywhere near me. (And those that are, are mislabeled and are C. medium, not C. calycanthema.) The rest of your list looks great but I can't handle too much more right now. And no worries if you run out, I can mail order. This is just way more fun!

That's what I was thinking... pretty weird how only one of the 4 trees in the hole has it. But yep, when I started to do some digging that's what I thought. I checked for borers and found zero evidence above or below the soil. Would any of you think kelp meal would do the trick? I'm trying to stay pretty organic.. but if anyone has another answer that may help better by all means let me know. I have local access to both kelp and bone meal, but have been using kelp meal as part of my feeding regimen.

I love my Harcot apricot. Really showed some resistance to canker and blossom rot. It has produced fruits for me in the wettest (most number of rainy days) bloom period ever. The fruits are the most delicious of the apricots I have tasted, it is like a hybrid between a yellow nectarine and a peach. It was developed at Harrow Experiment Station in Ontario, Canada. One thing nice is that it is cold hardy and also bore three flushes of blooms for me, and are spaced between 1 to 2 weeks apart. Some flowers will succumb to late frosts, but at least one major flush usually escapes it, just my observations that needed confirmation in our area. It currently has 18 different kinds of apricots, a peach plum, peach cot, almonds, plum cots, peaches, nectarines, asian plums, european plums, cherry plums grafted to it, and all growing with most blooming now, but I made sure half the canopy is still Harcot, it is just so good. Please note that the plums are not directly grafted, I have to use plumcots as interstems. Hopefully, next season if another interstem will take, I would have some sweet cherries grafted on it. I agree that the leaves and the tree structure is so good. The branches are spreading well enough so that whatever you graft unto it will usually not shade each other out. The Harcot being more disease resistant than the Blenheims or Canadian White Blenheim, is very ideal for multi-grafts. I would compare it to my Lisbon lemon tree in the way it spreads its major branches. I have grafted more than 50 cultivars to my Lisbon and I think I will be able to graft much more cultivars on the Harcot.
