I'm pretty much on track. You? Spring starts on Thursday at my Sinney residence. That's my estimate as to when my prunus blieriana will start flowering. ;-) For years I've checked up on a particular prunus on a road I travel sometimes each winter. For about 30 years this particular tree has always flowered at least 2 months before the warm weather arrives. I always look out for it when I'm driving down that road and it never fails to cheer me up when I see it in bloom. Do you start planting when your prunus flowers or do you still ahve to wait a few weeks? Despite 1/9 supposedly being 'Spring',I know that there is no way I can plant anything I please just because the date tells me it's spring - 1/10 is more like the real time I can plant with any degree of certainty. |
