BARE ROOT SEASON DOES ARRIVE!

Subscribe to Our Newsletter!

Greetings!


Many of you have expressed sadness (and even panic) about not being able to get bare root fruiting plants from us this winter so we've decided to offer a few items at our farmers market booths.
 

We made this decision pretty late and a lot of items are already sold out.  We should be able to offer most of the basics, though.   
 

Some of the smaller items will be sold as true bare root plants.
 

Because we can't carry our usual display bins, we will be pre-potting most of the larger items.   
 

This week we are receiving grapes and strawberries.  In the next week or two we should be receiving tree fruits.


 

I can special order a few additional fruit trees before next week.  You might want to let me know what you are looking for and I'll check the availability.   

At Our Farmers Market Booths This Week

Bare Root Chandler Strawberry  Chandler has the reputation as being the ideal flavor and texture for a fresh picked strawberry.  40 cents each.
 

Bare Root Grape Lakemont seedless  This hybrid of the commercial Thompson Seedless grape is considerably better suited for growing locally.  Thompson Seedless requires Central Valley heat and often suffers from mildew.  Lakemont is mildew-free and although heat tolerant, ripens well under typical Orange County conditions.  

Bare Root Grape Flame seedless  This is the popular commercial, summer ripening, red grape.  Orange County weather is warm enough to ripen it, but you will have to treat it for mildew some years. 
 

Bare Root Wine Grape Cabernet Sauvignon  This is the most popular wine grape cultivar.  It is quite adaptable and easy to grow.  It is at its best in gravely soils in warmer climates.  You may need to treat for mildew.  It is also noted for its exceptional eating quality fresh off the vine.    

Bare Root Wine Grape Chardonney  This is a very popular white wine grape.  It prefers coastal locations and clay soils.  It is quite easy and disease resistant.

 Bare Root Wine Grape Zinfandel  This is a very widely grown wine grape.  It prefers coastal locations and is easy to grow but tends to ripen unevenly.    


Potted Blueberry plants are still available, but our supply is getting low. 
 

Also Arriving This Week

Succulents are our most popular impulse item.  Their unique forms and vibrant colors make a low maintenance, long term impact in your garden.
