Hi, Brian is a good friend of mine. He did grow quite a few from that seed. He had an 810 and 710 which were descendants if I recall. Send me an email and I'll put you in touch. [email protected]

OK, well, the 810 and 710 are descendants of 940 Mombert and 867 Mombert. (Just checked my stash.)

Sorry, but are you looking for seeds from fruit grown off the 847.5 or are you trying to find out what any 847.5 offspring looked like? BF

Originaly a 847.5, there hard to find, now just anything grown from a 847.5 seed, and what they looked like.

Here are a few crosses that I have made with the 847.5:
627 Pappas(867 Mombert x 869.5 Calai) x 847.5(867 Mombert x 825.5 Shymanski)
847.5 x 771 Holland(903 Holland[567.5 x 990] x 801.5 Stelts)
847.5 x 1332 Werner(1420.5 LaRue x 1180 Daletas)
My 847.5 fruit were very orange barrels.
I'm planning to make a few more 847.5 crosses this season as well as crossing my (847.5 x 1332) x 772 Poirer(500 x 1332).
If you would like to grow any of these crosses this year, just let me know, BF
