My question is "does anyone have a Hollier and Guilbeau

and if so, do you think they are the same?

Thanks in advance.

Cecil the pics Gorgi posted on GW a while back of his Guilbeau the figs were dark colored the Hollier I have seen personally are green figs also on the variety page under Hollier says might be same as Guilbeau then you go to Guilbeau and says might be same as Walker.

Yes Gorgi It sure did the forum was down for a bit today even removed the pictures from the other thread about the greek cuttings.

HAHA, Thanks Nelson!

I have a Guilbeau, so I can call it Guilbeau, Hollier or Walker?

3 fer 1.......I think I will call it what I got it as, (Guilbeau)


Sides that, I figure Herman is having Heartburn, He is where I got the Guilbeau cuttings from.HEHE

I would have to say that out of all the cuttings I have ever started the Hollier wins by far they root some crazy spaghetti roots and quick. Also the Hollier wood is different than any other I have seen personally its lighter in weight and not as woody looking if that makes sence.

Hollier roots easily & they are excellent. Productive too. My original source is from Adriano.

same result here. hollier is the rooting champ. if only they were all so easy :)

Cecil, Walker is a BT, basically.
Hollier and Guilbeau don't look the same, here, and have different leaves.

Thanks Jon,

In fact thanks to everyone that has replied to this thread!

Like I said earlier, I had a nice Hollier from J.R. but I did it "in"

Luckily for me a very nice, did I mention very nice member emailed me yesterday and thanks to him I am going to have some Hollier cuttings soon........I don't want to name him yet as my source because I haven't asked him was it OK!
Again, thanks everyone.

I was out of town, and didn't see this thread till it kinda of went "south" a little. (No offense to my southern friends.) So I edited out a couple of things, which I don't really like to do. Let's keep it just a little less personal. Thanx.

Don't feel like the LONE RANGER JON,

There was a LOT of damn things said I didn't LIKE

One thing I have learned is a certain member can fly off the handle, say all kinds of things in the heat of the moment on THIS
forum, and 1 hr later send a private email saying he is going to delete the falsehood crap he posted.......I got no respect for that kind.


Delete this to if Ya want, your the boss

I understand. The point is still to stay on your "handle" and not make it personal.

I can do that!

Way to go Jon.

Dan

Hi Dan,

You & I might be the only ones that understands

"way to go Jon"


But I got it LOUD & CLEAR

Watch how I handle it!
