Silver lining

9 years ago

Earlier this year 3 hail storms passed through DFW two of which had softball size stones. The local big box stores and nurseries had sales due to the damage. So we decided to see what needed some special care and a good home. We found a Hamlin, Moro, Owari, 2 Meyers, red navel, key lime, fantastic avo and a Celeste fig. The avo had one leaf on it and a lot of damage.

And here they are today.

Moro.

They have all come a long way. We can hardly wait for our 9 month old son to eat his fruit and vegetables that we have grown.

Congratulations on reviving those plants and giving them such a good home! I have a few rescues myself and LOVE the feeling of bringing them back to life! Your trees look lovely!

Great Job - thats the best feeling to get rescues to be thriving and its easy on the wallet too. Its amazing the how complacent the big box stores are when it comes to Plant care, well good for us .

Thanks Laura and Dev. I've learned so much about container gardening and citrus from everyone on this forum.
