"Speaking of vines, I'd like to try a Spanish Black grape vine (aka Le Noir?). I've heard they're ideal for our climate and make good wines and jellies. Haven't found any in the local nurseries, let me know if you see any around."

"Gosh, you asked me too quick. I don't remember. I bought one plant at the Westview Nursery on 84 last Fall. (I live between Waco and McGregor.) I really should figure out the type and write it down so I don't forget. It's about two…"

So I am looking at planting a loquat and want to add some vines to the mix. I always ask what people have growing. There is nothing like first hand experience. I love the idea of a thornless blackberry. I have a peach that is doing "peachy" and I think we lost the lime this winter. It was a chilly one in Austin and I did not live here at the time to protect it. When I plant another, it'll be in a spot closer to the house to get the radiant heat and shelter from the wind.
