Germinated:

Likely crossed with Duke, as it has a stronger anise scent than the seed parent. Roots survived winter outside, but both grafts were lost.
 | Update | 2024-09-04 07:06:52 | Looking pretty good this year. |
 | Update | 2024-06-27 07:23:29 | Roots survived well and are regrowing |
 | Update | 2024-03-04 18:51:36 | Pretty clearly dead below both grafts, but still green around the soil line. The Opal graft in particular looks like it may have been hardy enough to survive otherwise. |
 | Freeze update | 2024-01-28 07:05:00 | Stems look discolored above ground, more so than either of the grafts on this tree. Wouldn't be surprised if the grafts could have made it on a hardier rootstock, but I think they have been girded by a dead zone below the grafts. |
 | Update | 2024-01-07 00:25:00 | Built a cage around this tree to make it easier to protect if we get a bad freeze. |
