Cutting Sales & My 2021 Plans for Additional Fruiting Plants | Fruit Talk! w/ Ross Raddi -- EP: 83

In this episode of Fruit Talk! I go over my recent successful fruit tree/cutting sales. What worked, what we might do differently next year and what varieties are standards, more experimental or are some of the best and/or tastiest figs I grow. We then transition into talking about how much space I now have on the patio and what other fruiting plants that allows me to grow in containers. Of course citrus comes to mind and we talk about citrus varieties I'm going to try and grow as well as plans for strawberries in a hinged raised bed and my raspberry varieties.
