 Just came home with some trees!!  I went looking for another texas persimmon, but got home with a texas persimmon and 2 mexican white oaks.  The nursery had all shade trees marked down 50%, plus one of the white oaks looked a little sad, so i convinced the guy to give me  another 10% off that one.  Am i the only one who gets so excited about buying trees?  Its like christmas.😊   #grownostr #trees #gardening #permies https://nostrcheck.me/media/8d9d2b77930ee54ec3e46faf774ddd041dbb4e4aa35ad47c025884a286dd65fa/2cc21aa2d5c44445465ae9bd7e2d437b0f01102b704a9e69fed7a4bc6ab51cec.webp

 Awesome! You guys have a native persimmon?! I’m jealous.

 Yep, i planted a few last year, but they're small, so no fruit yet.  I've tasted the fruits from a friend's tree, and i love the fruit.

 I also get excited about new trees. 🌳💚

I bought heaps of fruit trees around 10 years ago for roughly $3.33 each.
They were marked as half price, but when I paid they were marked down another 50%, so grabbed as many as I could fit in the car.

 Now that is a real bargain.  Bet they are worth alot more now.
