>appleWe've got two or three apple trees here, but they're too young to produce much.
Older varieties from around the area, and one which is just a ton of grafts.
>pomegranateWe had a red russian pomegranate but we dug it up and moved if further south to my grandparents.
It's a very sturdy plant, to have managed to have been moved or died back to the ground three or four times.
It seems like it's doing much better at its current location though, it was just maybe a zone or two too cold here.
We've also got a small plot of russian kale.
Another very resilient plant that tends to do a little better in the fall when there's no butterflies to eat them.
Have a theory that the coloration of scarlet kale would make it undesirable to the green worms, and so would really like to cross them.
Getting something like a red russian kale!
I've never been able to get the scarlet kale to grow however. sad.
We've got some monstrous golden everglades tomatoes that grow like mad.
Most of them came back from unharvested fruits (this is because it's everglades).
Or fruits that went bad and so were composted.
I've selected one that was crossed so as to produce larger fruits (but still ripen on time unlike most of the crosses).
I'm hoping to grow it next year in a secondary plot somewhere.
Although for aesthetic reasons we've lost our previous secondary tomato plot.
A perennial battle!
Other crops include a large collection of thai kang kob mocshata pumpkins.
Only one vine of these really produced, so I'm going to select from this one.
Pumpkins are very resistant against over selection issues.
Have seem some really great Seminole derivatives, and would be very interested in crossing with these.
Some spaghetti squash grew from out of the compost, so we harvested several of these.
We planted a lot of half-runner beans, but not sure any actually produced.
A favorite from around the area.
We've also got a collection of jerusalem artichokes, we've never eaten them.
Overall it's tough to go wrong with local, or wild crops, gathered like folk stories.
Things like wild new jersey broccoli fascinate me, or eating wild mustard greens.
