Thank you Brianm for teaching me how to download The photos

Definitely not BM. You will get better answers when the fruit is ripe.

Not a BM.  As brian mentioned, you'll have to wait for fruit.

Its the old BT

you can trace her from your ebay history.
let us know who she was please.

Man Keith your Black Madeiras are the picture of health.  Your care and expertise really show here in the pics.  When will you get the first fruit?  The cutting you sent me has just this week started to put out roots.  Whoopee!!!!  Sorry for those that get caught in the ebay scams.  Bad karma for sure.

Hey Jodi. My BM does show a little FMV from time to time. Mostly on young plants and  some leaves on the shaded side of the plant. FMV doesn't bother me at all. The worst case I saw was a small  UCD Adriatic. The first year it only grew a few inches and the leaves always had a yellowish shade. Turned into a good plant. I got rid of it due to limited space and because in my yard JH was much better.
