Hi Marta. Will you be selling Den's choice at some point?
ReplyDeleteNot in the nearest future. I just don't have the space to make more plants
DeleteHello Marta, you have many New Zealand varieties that I haven't seen before such as Den's Choice and White Goose. Is there a North American distributor of these? How did you find them? Thanks..
ReplyDeleteI collected them via personal contacts and CRFG exchanges. The only nursery that sells some NZ cultivars is One Green World
DeleteThank you. I have some of these, but I was curious about the others. I was trying to select for fruit size. Last question, have you noticed any relationship between fruit size and taste? Some people seem to think that the smaller ones appear to be sweeter. But the larger fruit such as Kaiteri, Takaka, are so much easier to harvest and process...
DeleteI don't see any linkage between size and flavor. I should have the scions soon at reallygoodplants.com if you are interested to add to your collection. They need to be grafted.
