I`ve being watching this thread for some time,thinking how i would so much like to try some of those varieties that you NH folk are able to grow.We have so little choice here in "downunder NZ" in what can grow,and in that the only choice we have is to select from the limited varieties available, which is either ,heirloom or Chinese.
Even the commercial growers here are now looking to Argentina for new clones to replace the existing varieties that have deteriorated in vigour recently.
Why they haven`t looked to some of these heirloom varieties
is a bit of a mystery.
