Look what I found at Lowe's this morning

[Figgerlickinggood]

Black raspberries, red raspberries.

And then I saw FIG TREES if you want to call them that they're so small. 3 different types ...
VDB, Beers Black, Kadota. And quite a few, where you see my hand all the way to the front and 4 rows in.

Now I've saved the best for last. Something I've never ever seen at Lowe's before. Wonder how much these cost? 2 beautiful CATS.

Some of those fig trees don’t look bad at all … depending on the price.

The second picture if you zoom in under the name tag there’s a price tag, says 13.95. Are the figs sold at big box stores tissue culture?

Not a bad price for a +/- 2 gallon tree.

Some resemble the typical spidery look associated with tissue cultured trees, but others don’t have that look - I have no idea.

Look what I found at Home Depot yesterday

And I was nervous about working with grafting knives

Watch those fingers!

@Figgerlickinggood - Were the berries priced well? I find the big box plants super expensive here.

From what I see they’re the same price as the fig trees, $13.95. Must be the same size pots.

Yes generally they are tissue culture trees.

No special here

 

[DCallahan]

The clearances never show up online, and it's store to store. This store had the clearance and the one on the other side of town 5 miles away did not do the clearance.

I think that's a lot lower than up here.

 

[TorontoJoe]

I don't know a lot about berries. Do you know if it's common for them or other fruit to be TC?

I know most common fruit.... citrus, apple, pear, stone fruit etc go onto rootstock but I can seem to think off the top of my head another crop plant propagated this way

I had asked if those fig trees at Lowe’s were TC. JMF75 was saying they were.

I wasn’t sure if he was referring only to the figs
