What is the best flavored green plum/plum hybrid?
Comments (26)Whoa. I had no idea this forum post was updated. Carolyn, Definitely not looking for rot problems. The problem with getting recommendations for my region is that I have not found a reliable source yet - they just say "plums" and "apples" grow well here. I called my county's extension office and the guy was nice enough to email me some informative things but they didn't exactly answer my question about what is specifically known to grow well. Just now, I found an article online that says Frontier and Ozark Premier can be grown in the Southeast. On the other hand, Stark Bros. says Ozark Premier is "the best choice for the Ohio Valley and the Northeast, as well as the Midwest". So I've stayed in a state of flux and just used this forum mainly to see what people's experience with different varieties has actually been. At the time of this posting, I'd decided on Shiro and Satsuma. I want to get them from the same place and I want them the same size roughly so I've had a time locating a source. In the meantime, I've been trying to learn as much as I can and trying to see if there is a better choice to start with than what I have determined....See MoreWhat are your best flavored/textured fruits: here's mine
Comments (20)I have both Zard and Orangered. Its like apples and oranges, they are both fantastic in their own unique way. Zard is sweeter and more sour; Orangered is more delicate. Right now my Moniqui are starting to ripen, they are another fantastic white 'cot. Its my favorite white because it sets a lot of fruit; Zard just likes to put on wood for me. The new Sugar Pearls ended up being a disappointment, I was hoping they would be the ultimate white 'cot but no flavor. Full report when all have ripened... Fruitnut, I wish I could grow those muscat grapes, too much work in my climate. I added three of the new U Ark. varieties this spring and am hoping one of them works out. I agree on Strawberry Verte, my favorite fig is Battaglia Green which is a very similar tasting fig. This may be the last year for Flavor King, it seems to have some problem every year. The Flavor Supreme I keep but this year I have only ONE fruit on it!! Tupi blackberry sounds interesting. Since it was marketed as huge in size I got suspicious, huge fruit often means huge and nothing else good about it. My new favorite is Newberry, its a real WOW and is a full tier up from any other blackberry taste in my mind - a unique flavor that tastes like a mix of many kinds of highly flavorful berries all in one. This is from a limited tasting but its enough for me to decide to add a whole lot more of them. Scott...See MoreBest flavor green bean for CANNING ?
Comments (2)As many others have also posted in other threads, Blue Lake pole beans have been my 'standard' canning bean. Last year I also tried Roma II's - with 'mixed reviews'. Those that I harvested small and early were much better than others that I waited to reach full size. I've also had reasonably good luck with Derby bush beans....See MoreBest of the best climbing veggy varieties for flavor
Comments (0)I have decided to use my ten foot square dog pen around my compost pile. That will mean a LOT of nutrients around the perimeter going into the ground and a desire to cover the pen while hiding the compost pile. In the past I have tried half runners, but somehow they changed half way throught the season and were stringy. Could you experts in vertical gardening give me some ideas of what vegetables and sweetest/most productive verieties I should consider. No need for dried beans as the arthritis just wouldn't allow such lengthy shelling...and I can buy them so cheaply. THANK YOU!...See Morebiscgolf
