In my material, I have varieties of Luther Burbank's plums that came from a man who purchased them directly from Burbank. I was wondering what kinds of stories NAFEX members have on the origins of their varieties. How far can you trace a fruit you have? I'd like to hear from you if you have any good stories on the "lineage" of your fruits.
