Its because most trees bloom earlier than flowers, plums and peaches are some of the first things to bloom in the spring. Pears on the other hand are more reliant on flies than bees, makes sense if you ever smelled pear blossoms.Well one of the guys that spoke yesterday was talking about how much better trees were for pollinators than flowers, but it never occurred to me to ask why that was.Maybe I should just plant one kind of fruit TREE and plant the other 2 rows in bushes -- like blackberry or blueberry?? At this point I figure I have about 6-8 weeks of mental masturbation to go through before I have to buckle down, make some choices and spend some money. You guys have given me a lot to consider so far.
Those leaves are fuzzy feeling. It's creepy feeling. Like it's covered with ants. NO thank you!!Are you sure the fig trees are for the fruit or do you and grumpy plan to do some Adam & Eve role-playing in the backyard with just the leaves? We're all family here. Your secret is safe.
You can grow in pots and over winter in a greenhouse or inside, O have a Meyer lemon here and grew lemons and mandarines in Seattle over wondered indoors. i am tempted to try grow a yuzu close to the house. They can tolerate single digits. The problem with OK cold is it is 70 degrees one day and 10 the next
