I have seen both trees in person, The JBP at my house and in Oklahoma after Harry reworked it, and the Ponderosa when I was up buying RMJ's from Andy. Both trees are immensely better in person than in these nice photos. I believe that if Harry was in California and could put these trees into a nursery with good traffic they would be gone very quickly- which is saying alot when you understand that on average that Californians pay less for well developed material than most of us (there is lots of it out there). On the otherhand, if you have extraordinary material it will most likely bring a higher price on either coast than in the middle.

Harry, you got to learn how to get Frank to ship your big trees.

Now when we come up to Oklahoma for the Workshop at Franks, please be kind enough to bring them along to show us both and after the introductions are made we can start the negotiations on these two trees .. (Hubby likes hernia makers)
Although my taste are leaning towards the smaller trees I can still admire these hernia makers....
Sincerly,
Irene

(PS: Please ignore the awful ones who call me a Afghan Bazzar Queen in relations to my negotiating abilities)


Just to set the record straight.....I at no time in this posting thought the trees were gifts to me, It was all said with tounge in cheek good natured picking on Harry, whom I really am looking forward to meeting at Frank's....
And I do hope he brings the trees that he is wanting to sell. Whether it is to me or someone else I am sure he will sell them at a price he is comfortable with.
Life is too short to take everything said here as the gospel....
Irene

No Problem Irene, you asked to see more trees and I responded, never with the intention to give or attempt to sell you these trees . I am sorry though I won't be able to attend Frank's workshop. He picked the weekend my daughter will visiting me from Denver. I wish I could be there but it's not possible.

Harry
