Hi Mr. Clint,
Your Flavor Grenade tree is very beautiful. You seem to grow some mighty nice fruit. I am still looking at your pics from last season. My flavor supreme has a lot of blooms too. These trees are like babies to me and I am very anxious to see just how many blooms have gotten pollinated. LOL! I will upload soon too. Keep up the good work! What else is blooming profusely in your area? I am in Georgia and everything seems to be in full swing!!! Yea!

Here is a picture of my Flavor Supreme Tree. It is in full bloom as well. The black stuff you see on 4 areas of the tree is nothing but tree adhesive from last year. I think it may gotten a little sunburned. I won’t let that happen anymore…

MrClint, your Flavor Grenade looks great!! How long has it been in the ground? It seems like every year I lose a FG tree. Last year the deer destroyed one, the year before aphids killed one. The year before that I had FG on a 4n1 pluot tree and the other three pluots over ran the FG branch and it died. It sucks because FG is my favorite pluot. This year I planted three FG trees!

I will be happy just for the flowers
Thanks all, for the kind words! 
SteveM, I’m not much of a record keeper, would have to say that my FG was planted 4-5 years ago. It has been a great tree in a less than ideal spot. This FG is on Myro roots, which I highly recommend.
Lots of trees in bloom right now: Olives, citrus, plums, pluots, peaches.
ahgrower, your FS looks great. I see tasty fruit in your future.
