Yeah…those would be some huge birds when you think of the scale there. And that’s up at outflow level.

Do you have acorns? There’s been almost none here.

Mine is still out too. Hose in different area codes?

We blue. Unfortunately Dodger and not Jay.

The lack of arctic ice is killing his autumns

RGEM and NAM get the secondary going around NYC and track it over SNE up to coastal ME. Hopefully that keeps the rain going a little longer and heavier up here.

Don’t worry about a thing. Cause every little thing is gonna be alright.

I’ll add that there’s a guy growing them in VT (Buzz Ferver) that is right next to MPV airport. I know of a few people growing them in Quebec too. There’s someone in northern Aroostook near the border growing them, but he just planted them within the last few years. He’s lost most of his peaches as well so he planted those hardy Siberian C seedlings.

Your problem would be getting ripe fruit with your frost pocket and short growing season. There’s a couple of really early cultivars that may get you fruit in longer growing seasons…Halvin, Summer, Delight, and VE-21 come to mind. At the least they’re a tropical looking, ornamental tree in the landscape. KSU Chappell is by far the most vigorous variety out there, but not necessarily precocious. That’s a nice one to have if you want one to size up quickly. They can be slow growing the first few years so it’s nice to have one that at least looks like a tree.

A cool +1.5 Sep and +2.2 Oct so far for CON.

I assume you’ve tried them. Any particular variety? The wild seedling ones can have some weird flavors or unpleasant aftertaste. But seedlings with two high quality parents generally produce very good fruit as well.

I moved the plant posts to the garden thread.

In ground. They handled the Feb 2023 -18° with -45° wind chills fine. Grafted trees take about 5 years. Seedlings 7-8. It depends on genetics too. I pull the seeds and then scoop it. When they’re really ripe they have a custard like texture. You should hit up the guy in Marlborough next fall. His entire 1/4 acre is pawpaws and persimmon. FYI…I’ll move all of the plant posts to the garden thread.
