I just wanted you to know about the Black Mission Fig tree I bought from y'all last year. I planted it on 10-10-13. It is growing and thriving...and, much to my surprise, it is ACTUALLY PRODUCING FRUIT ALREADY! I am so happy with my purchase I cannot begin to explain to y'all the joy I get from that tree. I am sending 2 pictures of the first fruit, and me eating it! "C'est bon!" (it's good!) Our fig trees here in south Louisiana are of the Celeste variety, so it is nice having another kind of fig in my home orchard.

The Loquat, Anna Apple, and Ein Shemer Apple trees are growing and thriving also. The Anna produced flowers, but with no pollinator (the Ein Shemer was lazy *smile*) they withered and fell off. The Ein Shemer is growing like a weed! It's taller than my garage now. Amazing!

From my observations of the trees I purchased from you, your trees are obviously of the best quality. I am quite pleased to have them in my home orchard. May God bless and keep you and all your employees and your families.

I felt obliged to give you a big THANKS (or as we say here in South Louisiana: "MERCI BEAUCOUP").
