Thought it might be fun to start an over-all thread where we can list what we're growing, sort of like the thread about the wines people have in various stages.

300 vines consisting of: Marquette, LaCrescent and Brianna.

I've never counted all the various trees but I would approximate the number between 200 and 250. Varieties would include: Apple, Apricot, Plum, Cherry, and Chokecherry.

Various bushes as well which include: Nanking cherry, Sancherry, and Elderberry.

180' of Navaho blackberries, 30 elderberry (adding 75 more this spring), 2 Danube cherries (adding Black Gold & Lapin this spring), 3 black currant, 2 12' red raspberry rows, also adding 25 golden currants this spring.
Thinking about Honeycrisp apples, but cedar-apple rust is prevalent here.

BobF,

how are those Navaho blackberries doing for you? Those are one of the types im looking into, other than Triple Crown & 'Thornfree'. Navaho dont need anything more than a 2-wire trellis do they, to keep them from falling over and touching the ground? Thats what im looking for, but i was considered about the yield, berry size & flavor. Anything you've noticed would be greatly appreciated

Triple crown has nice yields, but is semi-erect.. Not gonna be cold hardy enough for the long-term, i think. Navaho & Thornfree are supposed to be more erect, more cold hardy, withe competitive flavors. Hands on > book reading though, tis why i ask.

The Navaho just went in a few months ago. I'm expecting the first yield 2013. I chose them over TC and others for the reasons you mentioned. A local nursery here claims they don't need any support, but I'll give them a couple of wires. We'll see how primocane development goes this year.

I'm planning to tip them and prune laterals spring of '13, so they should stand well.
