Tom Spellman and Dave Wilson Nursery visit Gary Matsuoka and Leah Beattie at Laguna Hills Nursery to see how things are growing. Figs, Goji berries and apples are the main points of discussion.
I am so lucky to live 15 miles away from Gary at Laguna Hills Nursery. He has helped me so much over the years. Regarding the nectaplum, I have about 25 different varieties of fruit trees on my property and the nectaplum is my favorite.
Wow nice to see that neither of these guys give in to the pressures of So Cal Ag!!!!! As a result, progress and hope! I'm impressed and inspired! Nice to see you both healthy! gray
Excellent videos thank you for sharing your knowledge could you make a video of what best pruners to buy and where to buy them and different fruit diseases,what sprays to use and how to use them thank you
@@xaviergregorio7698 yeah I think next year will be the true test. I knew when getting this veriety I was pushing the limit on chill hours. We get between 300-400 chill hours if we're lucky.
Wow, in these dark days of home quarantine I sure could use another friendly, informative FruitTube video! How about a discussion on "interspecifics," Tom? What exactly is a "Aprium," "Pluerry," "Pluot," etc.? Did Zaiger Genetic develop these, or Dave WIlson? Could I grow one in hot and humid north Florida? Thanks!!
Dapple supreme here in San Bernardino is my best producer as well. Dapple dandy does very well, with flavor king a heavy producer yet still pretty young and small. Flavor queen (Green with yellow flesh) isn't much to look at but produces heavily and tastes very good. Flavor grenade produced very well one year before a borer killed it. I should have the first fruits from its replacement this year. Flavor supreme has been the only disappointment, producing only 2 fruit in five years. I'm curious of the goji berry and the blueberries mentioned here. I wonder how well they would do in the hot and dry inland.
