I'll look forward to hearing how yours handle the cold. <br /><br />I'll probably be putting in 3 or 4 if I do go for it. I've got a lot of things to plant this summer!Todd @ Dreaming From Scratchhttp://dreamingfromscratch.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4380326450624241170.post-24489847976176209692011-02-24T10:50:46.754-06:002011-02-24T10:50:46.754-06:00I have never had a Red Gravenstein either.

They're popular in Northern CA, my Dad grew up north of SF and always remembers the Gravenstein apple juice. <br /><br />The currants should be delicious. I;m hoping that once they survive the winter we'll get some currants this year, though I'll probably have to wait another year or two. There's nothing like a tasty currant or currant/blueberry jam.El Gauchohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16123486882754116176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4380326450624241170.post-48008351655387965472011-02-23T08:12:54.333-06:002011-02-23T08:12:54.333-06:00What are Red Gravensteins like?
