Annual Manatee Rare Fruit Council Tree Sale (Florida)
Dale, I sure would love to go to that show!

It is always a great sale because of the variety of plants/trees and all the different cultivars. You also get a chance to talk to many of the growers as well. We will have some new vendors this year as well. I will have about 400 plants this year, about double what I brought last year.
I wanna go!
I wish that they would hold the sale on Saturday and Sunday. I rarely get to attend things on Sunday, too much going on- our family day. Oh well, maybe next year.
Just a reminder the sale is tommorow.
We hope many of you can make it to it.
Same here Ariel. I'm much better to do things on Sat. than Sunday.
What did you get, Dale?
This was the 1st year I have gone to that sale. I was impressed lots to choose from and LOTS of people.
It was record year selling 1,731 trees and plants in six hours. There were people at the door by 9:00 a.m. I had a good day selling 130 of my 225 plants. A few vendors were almost completely sold out.
The only plant I got was a Dwarf Everbearing Mulberry. I am only able to buy if I replace another tree in my yard.
