I'm wishing you good luck. Some of the best fruit I've ever eaten has come from backyard trees. We dipped to 30 the other night, but I worried more about my hostas than the cherry trees. Hail yesterday and snow last night. It's spring!

How are you Ms. Sandyslopes? A record moisture year here and more keeps coming. Our big local mtn.-Mt. Rose-has the most snow of any place in N. America, 65 ft.and still accumulating. Snowshoeing over the trees rather than through them.

65' WOW! That's amazing to snowshoe around the tops of the trees. Very cool! Your gardens are going to look great with all that water. We had a good snowfall, too, and the rivers are already running high. I've been lucky the weather has allowed me to get a good start in the gardens this spring.

It's still not warm enough to put out the succulents yet. They made it through winter, but I'll probably be over there (that forum) with a question or two this season.

65' is a lot of snow!

The magnolia seems to have come through the cold well. What kind is it?
