Just an update about my seed saving for this year.
I see others have updated their catalogs for 2010 already. Personally my web site probably won't be updated til around Thanksgiving if then. But I'll post about the new varieties I have as I get them drying.
I am collecting and processing seeds tho. That's about a month early for me. I have 20some plates drying so far.
New for me --
Neves Azorian Red
Lithuanian
Roughwood Golden Plum
Cuostralee
Vjera's
White Queen
Roza Vetrov
Sherrill
Siletz
I think that's it for now. I do still have at least 20 buckets in the barn to process and about 200 more to get picked.
Things have been horribly slow to ripen here this year. I did take pics of some of the new varieties but the color on many are really off as many are showing signs of sunscald. Most of the purple/blacks look more like yellow-brown.
If anyone needs seed of a new-to-me variety before I get my web site updated, just give me an email and I'll get you the seeds.
