Offering these for local pick up in Fresno. Chambeyronia macrocarpa var. 'watermelon' originally from Bill Austin's seed. Asking $20

And this is one of mine in the ground. They do great in Fresno under canopy - protected from sun and frost.

Nice growth! I also bought some of those and most germinated easily. They lasted for a while but I think I over watered them and they all died off.

Yeah! They have been grown outdoors since germination so perhaps that helped them get some size. We get a lot of heat where I live.

How many of those do you have? Impressive! 

I want one, but I already don't know what to do with my Macrocarpa and Hookeri. Not enough shade/canopy.

I have close to 30 maybe? and 3 of my own in the ground. I'll probably put a few more - they won't get very large here for a long time so why not...

Maybe grow a few out in larger pots to sell for more later on down the road? 

I'd buy one, but I don't have the time I used to. Got a 2 year old*

Otherwise I'd drive on down for a day trip. ;)
