Be careful of "hyped" low chillers. You are in a very mild area...and I would hate to see you buy a tree that never cuts it. Anna Apple is a special low chill apple for me. It is great!

Where abouts Kippy? I will be off to pick up my 7 trees soon. My local nursery (Ontario) has potted trees.

I sprayed all my peach/nectarines with Liqui-Cop today, and realized I have only 2 trees anymore.
There were several on this property when we moved in but they were really old. Two died, one had to go to put in a pond, (but it was half dead too anyway), and so now just two.
I had mixed up 3 gallons before I realized that, so just sprayed two fruiting plums and a flowering one, and some roses to use it up. The plums get a bit of brown rot/twig and blossom blight, so it couldn't hurt.
I'm trying to decide if I want to get anymore peaches/nectarines. I like them, but the peach leaf curl sprays, 3x a season, is a bit of a pain.

I tried "California No Curl" peach for two years in a row, one tree per year, and it indeed got no curl with no spraying at all, even though it was next to the worst peach for curl. But never got to taste the fruit, both were killed by borers within the one year each. Frustrating to say the least.

I used to have a Heavenly White Nectarine and it was soooo delish! If I got another, I'd probably get one of those.

I have two muli-graft Apples that spent the summer in containers that are going into the ground this month. Same varieties on both, bought one and the other was a gift, just a coincidence they were the same, lol. Braeburn, Fuji, Granvenstein, Granny Smith and Golden Delicious. We get a decent amount of chill for California (Santa Clara Valley), but not sure how the Braeburn will do. Guess I'll see!

Fireduck, with the super warm winter last year I really only had one very old tree not produce much. I think it is a Shiro. The plums we have are also listed at 500 hours and always bear so I guess I am not super worried. I do try to stick with 300 or less if possible.

Fireballsocal, this was up in Buellton at Windmill Nursery in case a nice trip to Solvang was in the future for you.

I'm going to get a Weeping Santa Rosa plum too. I think they look awesome if I can keep it alive? I'm on the edge of hardiness. I lost one already, but it was young and not established. If I can get it to take hold it should survive here. Also the new plum cherry interspecific hybrid from Australia, The cultivar Nadia. The fruit looks like a giant cherry. Hoping the Santa Rosa can pollinate? So many good plums, wish i had more room.

Kippy, I love me some Central Ca. coast and will make it up about once a year but not for fruit trees. Thanks for the info.

Pretty exciting time for us fruit growers here in So Cal. Picked up a few things on a lark (ultra dwarf fuji, flavor delight aprium, and sharpblue BB) and some things on the cheap (santa rosa plum & fall gold raspberry). Probably not done yet.
