Title: I hope I am wrong
Post by: Bills Custom Calls on April 11, 2010, 07:28:01 PM
I think it is a little early yet to have fruit trees in blossom we could still get a good enough frost to destroy a good fruit crop

But they sure are purdy

and yes I planted these trees 3 years ago the first yer I planted them they had fruit on them last year we got a late frost and they froze out

Cherry tree
This lil guy isn't doing so well

Looks like your trees are ahead of the ones in Columbus and Columbus is at least a week ahead of things at home.  Our Redbud trees are just starting to bud, not open, but get little red bumps where the buds will soon appear.

Jerry are flowers were up early this year too they were pushing up through snow we had left on the ground

Magnolia tree is in full bloom and this is the first year I can remember the Easter lillies actually bloomed just before Easter and are still blooming

I hope you are wrong too Bill. We got a good frost twon nights in a row. Peaches and Pears are in bloom and I think ours got nailed. At least we still got blue berries.

We don't have to worry to much about a late frost out here.  However we do have to worry about strong winds while the fruit trees are in blossom.  April is our "windy" season and for this reason most people who plant peach trees or any fruit for that matter will plant late "bloomers".  I too hope your wrong Bill.

 I planted a bunch of peach pits  and had a few come up. Then I transplanted them again and this is what I came up with. They are starting to produce real well. I was a little scared they might have froze out this last Winter. They are just starting to blossom now and looks like I will have a good crop. The little girl is Lily, my Grandaughter. She is a real peach.!!!
