Re: TB: CULT: questions - about growability


From: "William Stone" <wstone@volcano.net>

Linda;  We are at the 3500 ft. level in California and experienced some of
the roller coaster the past couple years.  Fuji Skies hasn't missed a beat
while Yaquina Blue seems to be slow.
Megabucks planted last year at the wrong time and almost died is looking
good this Spring.  Last Chance, we have had a couple of years ( doubt if it
is a 99 but haven' t a official description yet ) is doing fine.  We did
bring this one down from my brothers near Klamath Falls, Ore. and if it
survives there it should elsewhere.  Hope this helps   Bill
