I've planted some plums and peaches over the last coupla months.Didnt really expect much the first year,but after a nice warm spell,blooms burst forth,giving me hope for a little taste.But the disappointment is a cold front blew in today,supposed to be around 20 tonight.Oh well,always next year!

Scott,the Santa Rosa looked good

Metheley could had had a few

A peach

The Bruce plum was full of blooms.

Kinda hit and miss on fruit trees here.

Sorry for your loss. W/no fruit production draining them you should have great growth and a bumper next year.

Maybe they will surprise you and survive the cold.

Hopefully, they'll produce next year.

Often a second bloom will happen if the first does not set fruit.

rocknrob: That was one heck of a windstorm that thankfully missed me. I guess Seatac almost hit 60mph gusts. I bet those were some fun landings Nov 20, 2024 21:55:16 GMT -5
