Purchased three of the "Bailfire" females to go with one "Southern Gentleman" male plant. | June 3, 2019: Obtained plant (Acquired plant at Green Lake Nursery in Spicer, MN.) June 9, 2019 - May 3, 2020: Transplanted (Put in the ground. Three plants. At points of a square; the northwest point contains the male "Southern Gentleman" which should pollinate the females at the other points.) September 15, 2019: Fruit Ripened (A single berry appeared! I suspect that the plants were not pollinated in the way they were organized at the nursery.) May 5, 2020: Plant emerged (Noticed leaves coming out.) |
