Thread too long. Must go back outside rather than try to catch up.

P.S.
A couple months ago I mentioned a peach and plum tree that largely failed last year. I have know picked 3 dozen perfect peaches from one tree, and 10 (lost a bunch to some weird disfiguring blight) perfect plums. Apples and pears are still …ahem…in vitro, but I have high hopes.
