More nursery persimmons and pear

[Mattyq2402]

Anyone have luck with either Morse persimmon or any of their pears? I’m trying to find a place to buy persimmon. But bluehill is always sold out before I can get to it. Any other recommendations for persimmons that are a little more mature than seedling? Anyone ever try hybrid pear from Morse?

With all that said, any nursery pear for deer that’s an absolute must on your farms?

In late February I picked up two 3yr old Hybrid pears from Morse's West Lafayette facility. I was very disappointed by the root systems of both trees., Both were planted the next day. One has since started to bud and seems to be progressing. The other has remained dormant. It looks dessicated and quite sickly. I doubt I'll purchase again from Morse. I'll try to update the progress of these two trees over the coming months.

How did those Hybrid pears end up doing ?

I’ve purchased from blue hill and have had 98% success on 50 trees, they are out of persimmon but still have pear trees. I have heard good reviews on white tail crabs. they sell pears too

Get pears from Bluehill. Their trees are great.

Check Perfectcircle.farm for persimmon. They're usually a little more expensive.

Both as dead as dead can be. One has already been replaced by a thriving BH Kieffer. BH Advent should be arriving next week to fill the other vacancy. I'll not buy from Morse again.

Lots of bad feedback on Morse after Charlie stopped running it/sold it/passed it down.
