Hello everybody,
I am looking to acquire a Vista in a tree trade.
I know they all have FMV, but I'm looking for one that appears healthy. As in, I don't want one that has a nasty cocktail of virus and is growing deformed splotchy leaves. This shouldn't be too much to ask, I've done my homework and most that have posted say their trees look pretty good.
I have an extra Unkown Union Berry from a cuttings trade this winter. The one I have for trade I held back in the cup for awhile before I up-potted it a couple weeks ago to the 32oz yogurt container it is in now. It is just now starting to come out of it and beginning to grow fast like it's sisters. This is the easiest growing tree I have had yet, and the leaves are like solar panels.
This is the tree for trade(pictured below).
(I'm using "below" to avoid confusion for the easily confused) :)
The treeling started to pull nutrients from the top leaf to use on roots while it was still in the cup. I let this go on for awhile before up potting so I didn't end up with a big tender tree to ship. That top leaf was originally lush and green like the lower new leaf, I don't think it will green up again. Probably just grow new ones, the new leaves grow so fast it's amazing.

Here (below)is a picture of my keeper that has been getting up potted promptly, and her sister which is going to be part of a house warming gift for a long time friend. These are not for trade.
Here(below) is another possibility if you don't like the above Union Berry. It's another extra unknown called Bonita Green. This one is still in the cup and also really wants to be up potted. This tree obviously has FMV, but when happy it easily beats the virus down.
Here is a link to the original post and fruit/tree pics of the mother.

Here(below) is a picture of my keeper Bonita Green, again this plant is not for trade, just showing what it looks like when promptly up potted and happy.
Send me a PM if interested. A picture of your trade would be nice.
