Mulberry - Hicks Fancy (Grafted) ^7/10

Comments: -

Fruited within its 1st year of planting, as a bare rooted tree. Only a handful, which is bit disappointing. 1 of the branches died but the other is growing well. This is a early season variety. No hassle tree. Doesnt like we feet.

Prune in winter.

Peach - Anzac (Grafted) ^4/10

Comments: -

Bought from Bunnings. Very troublesome. Within 1st year of planting got curly leaf. Only knew it after the leafs came out, which is too late to control. Suspect it had it even before I purchased. Lesson to be learnt, if you plant stone fruits, always remember to do the copper treatment before buds swell. 2years but no fruits yet.

Prune in winter.
