I'm just keepin' my fingers crossed, Kim. I emasculated the blossoms before they opened when they were still enclosed in their green hulls with just a bit of yellow showing. Then I waited two days until the other blossoms that were in the same cluster opened and applied the pollen to the emasculated stigma ... waited another day and repeated the pollen dabs.

When the little fruit ovule started peakin' out, I removed all the other blossoms and ovules from the same cluster and left only the the crossed ovule tagged.

Here's Brandywine x Neves Azorean Red



Here's Juanne Flammee x Sun Gold



Sorry for the fuzzy focus on that one.
