I  took great care in selecting a Serviceberry which could survive the warm 
climate of South Carolina and succeeded, only to find that Quince Rust 
negates any crop production.  Any suggestions?  QR also ruins all Mayhaw 
fruit here. They both are decorative and attractive but not berry/fruit 
producers here.
I highly recommend you take Tanis up on her offer to supply you with some 
Egyptian/Walking/Top-set Onions. We gardeners in the South who like a 
all-season supply of onions have been growing them for as long as I can 
remember.  They aren't any competition. taste-wise, to Bermudas or Valdostas 
but the tops go well in Oriental dishes and either the bulbs or top-sets 
will give an onion flavor to soups, etc.  I heard somewhere that onions are 
the mostly commonly eaten single food in the World.
