Prayin' for your fruit trees! Gardening up north is such a challenge. Arrrrgh. We had frost warnings here, too. I've not planted anything in the ground that isn't very cold tolerant.

Doesn't help for trees at all, but for my raised beds I am installing brackets that will hold pvc pipe so I can have hoop houses over top of the beds. Nice for poly in the cold weather and for bird netting in the warm weather.

We've got them here, too. I've got a peach tree just a week past bloom, cherry trees blooming now, and ALL my apple trees are in full bloom. I'm praying hard... this could be a disaster.

Firebird can you make that bobblehead thingy smaller??? It really bothers my vision and in more ways than one.

Mom of 23, we worry too, as we're still getting heavy frosts and tonights low and tomorrow nights low are 28F and 30F. We have the basic greenhouse and are still transporting plants to and from the house because we don't have a way to heat it and don't want to take any chances. Our fruit trees are all in full bloom and we NEED the fruit as well. I just keep scratching my head over all this Global Warming hype, we sure aren't seeing it and for that matter think it's only Al Gore's bonus retirement package. We'll be praying for you, your fruit trees and ask you do the same for ours.
