I’m having serious rust problems on mine. This was my second year of fruit.
The fruit splits with rain and spoils on me very easily. I still haven’t gotten any worthy samples to make a proper assessment.
I’m also not happy with the rootstock it’s on in my location.
That being said it’s getting the Ax.
Dripping honey, Korean Giant ,chojuro, Deveci and others all perform vastly better for me from the start.
