Six 9.5 Clayton singles (but another similar sized one got beyond ripe and is not pictured)... three were grown on each plant, set on the first truss after the main set failed... Some of these were very small blossoms that I allowed to grow out of curiosity. The middle one was on the grafted plant. Clearly the biggest. The grafted ones look more plump.
But perhaps the flowers didnt have much inherent potential as the other ones?

The graft is holding up well and the plant is healthy but it hasn't showed much interest in producing any larger flowers yet.

Fortamino or estamino rootsock from territorial seed I think? As far as fruit potential goes it seems to start weak but finish strong.
