What? No pictures?

Congratulations anyways! 😉

It won’t let me post a pic!! ugh

Try now. It doesn't always work unless you put pix in a new comment.

I'd assume then that you've had some rain in your high-desert spot? :)

Here's mine this morning.

First flush, it put on about a foot up high and 8-10" on the side branches.

Second flush, is still going but so far, 16" on the high leaders and about a foot or so on side branches. Go Quercus m. Go! 🤣

Not much rain, just the same amount of irrigation as any other year. The difference this year is it has been HOT. they say “hottest year on record”. Probably indeed warmest of my lifetime.

Any acorns?

PS: My acorns are few. The tree must've put all its energy into growth.

Nice!

The acorns are always tiny. much smaller than pictures I’ve seen. But what does grow by summer’s end always gets eaten quickly

Here is it in full. Was waiting for it to reach out to its maxium . I think it has. It’s starting to actually look like a real tree after 9 years. 😂 That’s one of my sons in the photo
