Lowes in Richmond got in Monday their fruit trees from Simpson Nurseries in Smithville, TN.
Goldrush and Dosett Golden were the unusual ones.
I got a Jonathan and a Honeycrisp plus a couple of peaches from Tractor Supply last fall and they were over 6 ft and well branched out. $40. They were doubled-tagged so Iâm hoping thatâs what they are! I really wanted an Empire but will have to get that someplace else. The Honeycrisp is for my picky eater granddaughter although she likes Empire as well. My favorite peach was from a local grocery store, bought on a whim, and itâs a fantastic producer. I think itâs a Contender.
I tried to look up the Dave Wilson âHome Orchardâ packaging in my previous picture but I couldnât find anything. Interestingly there was no rootstock tags and the prices were very high for a tiny sleeve pot.
Anybody know if this is going to be standard for DWN trees now?
I used DWNâs where to buy retail feature. Despite DWN saying it had sold a winesap tree to a Georgia nursery, the reply from that nusery was they didnât sell winesaps from DWN. No other mail order source for that variety was listed as in stock.
