Hey Joe, when you and an old friend of mine get back to CA I will have to introduce you online-- He lives somewhere near you-- he said UC Davis is about 20 min from him.

He is in Pensacola to see his mom and I took him fishing today. We were talking about my citrus trees and he has a large Meyer Lemon he wants to turn into a cocktail tree. I told him it was easy and you could probably help him get some budwood.

He could either be in the Sacramento area or Vacaville or Winters. Sure, let him contact me and he can go over to my place. I have plenty of budwoods. This weekend I will be grafting like crazy to take advantage of the cool summer and my new orders of UCR budwoods. I can spare many budwoods from those branches that I am going to graft over.

He lives in Sacramento or close by-- he is far enough out that he has chickens. He said the trunk of his Meyer lemon is 5-6 inches in diameter, so he has room for many varieties. He is a wildlife biologist and use to be one of my duck hunting buddies before he moved away. I told him I was sure you would be glad to help him learn how to graft.

Make sure to send PM when he will be around. I may be offline for a long time while preparing and doing the long trip in about second half of august, and in July we also have other camping trip. I can check on the PM from time to time.
