Loquats this year.........maybe not..........Freeze tonight

Mosaic Mom and I love our loquats - especially the big (2 inch diameter) and sweet ones we get....But the big hard freeze tonight my take our crop.......all the fruit are about 1/2 inch in diameter...

Hell I am worried about all the smaller trees we have planted that are in a growth spurt - that is to become they WERE in a growth spurt. Oh well it will be 75 degrees in a couple of days and that always helps promote the smell of decaying plant tissue.

Forget the avocados = toast.....

Hey this will create an opportunity for some before and after (the freeze) photos...Of course I hate to think about redoing the landscape again...Our landscape was raped by the power company 2 years ago and now mother nature is going to do her thing.

Grrrrrrrrrr... or better yet Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr......
