Correy says... Hi Anon. Isn't this the forum topic where you mention Gisela? Minature (Gisela) I can't grow the cool high chill cherries in Brisbane except for the Acerola Cherry Tree which I am growing in a pot to bonsai it. Cherries are one of my favourites so one day I will have to either go and live in a colder climate or get myself some industrial fridges to get the 700+ chill hours they require. I also heard through the "cherry vine" that there is a chemical only available to orchardists that allow cherries to break bud without getting the chill hours. P.S I sent a copy of the Gisela forum topic to Greg. | About the Author Correy Woolloongabba, QLD 1st April 2008 |
aNON says... Flemings sell the Royal Lee and Minnie Lee varieties, they only need 400 hours chilling. No idea what Brissy gets. You can check out the photos on their web site under the commercial section or on www.davewilson.com. He uses the terms "So-Cal" ready. Most of the stone fruit that grows sub tropical is listed on his website as so-cal proofed. Ps So cal is Southern California. | About the Author aNON 2nd April 2008 |

Correy says... Hi anon we don't get 400 chill hours in brisbane. Thanks for the heads up on the chemical but I think I will stick to my subtropical cherries for now. | About the Author Correy Woolloongabba, QLD 3rd April 2008 |

Happypear says... Clermont is in Central Queensland, abour 3 1/2 hours west of Mackay. Thanks for your advise. Any idea about if planting 2 of similar type e.g peach and nectarine or raspberry and loganberry bush in the same hole when first plant them to ground. or would planting these in pots ) one by one has good chance of success at all. I have limited space. | About the Author Happypear Clermont 30th August 2008 |
