Скачать или смотреть Mariposa's First Trim

Very short video about an apparently successful graft of Maripos onto N.C. NC. Kibben Rootstock and my pruning off of the other grafted stem of the rootstock. Maripos is an Asian type plum from California known to do well in hot climates. I've never heard of it being grown in cool climates, and according to a plum guide put out by the University of Georgia, it has a reputation for fare disease resistance in Georgia but is only known to do well in the southern part of the state. Given Mariposa's very large and different looking fruit with high sugar contend and reportedly good flavor, I decided to trial it in Statesboro GA. The fruit has blood red flesh and splotchy dull green and dark red skin which reminds me of camo.
