Okay, nice try...However, full-size leaves, without humidity tent/dome, and no resultant rooted cuttings in video are not very convincing, but good luck anyhow.. More importantly, don't give up! Keep learning and experimenting. I have successfully approach grafted Chocolate pudding fruit tree onto American persimmon in the summer in Central Florida and I am curious to know if I can successfully cleft, side veneer, T-bud, chip/bud and/ or patch graft them to persimmon trees in the summer.
My Brown Turkey tree has Celeste leaves like yours and others I`ve seen and my Celeste have a mix of triangular "shield" or "heart" shaped leaves and long, narrow 5 fingered ones on the same plants. So who knows what I have. My turkey trees are making much larger figs than any Celeste I`ve ever seen and they`re slightly purple when ripe. No fruits on my others yet but they came from tissue culture supposedly. All came from plant nurseries in Florida & California. But hey, as long as they make figs and can survive the freezes I`m good.
They grow much better with 6 to 12 inches of mulch several feet out around the tree...layers of grass clippings, leaves, cardboard, rotting branches, pine straw etc.
I ordered trees so who knows if they`re really Brown Turkey & Celeste. I rooted a cutting from the turkey and put it in the ground in March and I have another in a pot to plant next March. So I have 7 so far & 4 Dwarf Everbearing Mulberry in Louisiana. They`re growing HUGE already. I got one ripe fig so far from the turkey and it was the sweetest fig I`ve ever tasted. Baby birds pecked off a lot of tiny green figs so I had to put mosquito nets over the two making fruits this year.
Funny i have 5 varietys of cannabis in my yard and only 1 variety of fig. I dont know what variety but will figure it out when it fruits. Your yard looks great thanks
Yes, they are roselle. Jamaican sorrel and roselle refer to the same plant, specifically Hibiscus sabdariffa. Cranberry hibiscus leaves look like a burgundy maple leaf (burgundy when the light is adequate; in shade they are green).
This is exactly what's happening in my yard, except these trees belong to our neighbors. We've tried getting a hold of them to trim the trees but they keep ignoring us. Any tips on how to clean this debris? I've found that the leaf blower doesn't work as they get stuck in the turf, they even get stuck on our concrete. The only thing I've found that works is a shopvac which takes forever. Any tips would be greatly appreciated!
Where can I order? Good feral seeds and cultivated stuff like this tree or wild lettuce any good suggestions I know. Look it up online. Just cause it’s there. Don’t make it good. Any help out there thank you.
