No garden at all for me this year, nor last year, though maybe next year, with a little luck. Well anyway I'm green with envy, if little else. :-) Regards Keith On Tue, Sep 11, 2012 at 10:13 PM, robert and benita rabello [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: On 9/11/2012 8:37 PM, Zeke Yewdall wrote:

I can only echo your comments Robert, both regarding climate change, denial and my garden. We got a bit the reverse on the weather, but equally damaging. Hot and dry spring through July. Little sprouted, and even with some watering (the rainbarrels were dry), most withered, either from the

Yes, it's been weird this year. It stopped snowing in early March here (right when it's supposed to really start snowing), and we got very little moisture from March to the end of June. I was planting in April, when usually I'm still plowing the driveway well into May. Horrible forest fires --

Two weeks ago we had snow here. Since then, however, we've had warm days and our trees and shrubs are in a riot of blossoming. The pear tree that I was CERTAIN wouldn't make it through last summer is literally covered in buds, and the two Italian prunes that were so badly infested
