they sold me a turkish brown fig that is supposed to make fruits twice a year.
not happening.
they sold elder trees in bunning with a label saying 'pick and eat' .
elderberries are poisonous when not boiled (into jam). i know. i ate them raw when i was a child. never been so sick in my life.
it comes down to a choice.
if you breed things you need to select what you breed for.
the colour, taste, hardiness but you cant have it all.
if you chose a superior taste you need to be prepared to work for it (really hard work, getting the right soil, only using rain water, fertilise etc.) or you go for the easy robust thing.
its your choice.
