Not my tree. I propagated it, but it belongs to them. It's hard sometimes to track down the successes and failures of my customers, so I pay more attention to the more public examples. I'll ask how the fruit was next time I stop by--there were pictures posted on Facebook of food made with them, so I know they were eaten. Without tasting it myself, though, it's hard to know how it compared to those from my own trees.

I do wish I had a name for the Jolly Tiger reversions, though. I've given a lot of them away now and it's confusing to call it "Jolly Tiger, Reverted." I need to track down Barry Yinger, whom I got my original from, and see if he knows the origin of the variety.

Years ago my mother used to say to me, she'd say, "In this world, Elwood, you must be" - she always called me Elwood - "In this world, Elwood, you must be oh so smart or oh so pleasant." Well, for years I was smart. I recommend pleasant. You may quote me.
