I like to see and share details on the New things you are adding to your garden, orchard, food forest (this year). There is a 2023 version of this with several posts.
If you have decided something is worthy of space at your place… I might want to consider it toooo.
Feel free to post any details and pictures of the NEW things you are adding in 2024.
Thanks

To start us off…
Yesterday I recieved shipment from Lucille at Whitmans Farms… 1 Oscar Mulberry and 2 Crandall Clove currants. I got them planted late yesterday evening… and it came a good rain on them last night.
Man the dirt where they are planted is just excellent… best on my place. Deep, rich, loaded with organic matter. I still topped them off with compost and composted wood chips. Hope they do well.
Meet Oscar mulberry … expecting some large and very flavorful mulberries from it in a few years.
Last fall… I added a Isons Muscadine…
A few days ago… got an Oh My muscadine delivered from Gurneys… and got it planted.
I have my own little Muscadine vineyard now. Looking forward to trying those.
I have Cardinal asian persimmon and Royal medlar ordered from OGW… not delivered yet.
Should be getting those soon.
I started a small bed of 3 Caddo blackberries at our new home location last fall. A friend gave me those and the isons muscadine. Appreciate that !!!
Now when it comes to things i will be adding by grafting… the list is quite long.
Persimmons - H63A, H118, Mohler, Journey hybrid, Dar Sofiyivky, Saijo, Rojo Brillante and one other that I have to keep secret for a while and will hopefully be able to reveal later on if successful.
Apples… Pristine, Black LT, Red Royal LT, Royal LT, Myers Royal LT, Clarks crab, Chestnut Crab.
Plums… Alderman, Superior, Toka, Spring Satin plumcot, So Mtn EB Plumcot, Vic Red american plum, Satsuma, Beauty.

That should be it for the year.
