Hi Doc,

What were the seasonal lows when they were eating them in the 40's and 50's?

Could shifting weather patterns (warmer-colder), and you being near the zone
line be at issue?  Not enough chilling hours possibly not happening today?

Later,
Tom

Subject: [NAFEX] Sparkleberries

I mentioned several years ago about finding plenty of Sparkleberry 
trees/shrubs on my property which although locals recite eating them by the 
handful in the forties and fifties, I haven't seen a berry here although 
they do bloom
