The Red Bud Stage

Posted by Hoping for strong surviving buds, Patti on Mar 4th 2019

The apricot trees are turning red......seriously....they're all red.

The bark, the trunks, the limbs are a deep dark red.  It's time for the buds

to shoot out of their little jackets.  Our home ranch orchard looks red with

little drop-sized buds just inching to push out and be a blossom.

So this would be the time when we DON'T want rain & we don't want

freezing cold nights.  (Anything above 34 degrees is fine) 

More rain on the horizon......outlook does not look promising
