I have been extremely busy. Cut and burned a dead rosebush then planted another in same spot. Planted 4 oleander,3 roses ,a peach, 2 fig, 2 esperanza. Chickens are good, except for dry fowl pox, it's stabbed over but they look rough. Put pine needles in run.
I had some old furniture in the barn-its now in house(minus 50+ lbs of dirt dauber nest, and I'm working on cleaning it up.
It's been Chilly, I'm sore today, Ben gay and a heating pad.

That's about right for San Antonio. A few more degrees cooler and we would have had frost last week.

Ditto last week up here as well. We had a ~38* morning that might of been cooler than that.

No! I've got a bunch of bananas ripening. Too early to cut them. They just got back from the February freeze. It really is a nice bunch.

At least they came back....my orange tree and fig trees got killed by the 'deep freeze'! Orange tree was 37 years old. Fig trees were 44 years old.

Ouch. What type of figs did you have? DD#1 brought home some yellow figs and Crazy Lady is demanding I sit out there and protect the fruit from birds, squirrels and the dogs so she can eat it.

Yep. I planted 2 more figs.

Our lakehouse has - recently discovered fig trees next to a very tall cypress tree.

wondering aloud how easy they can be transplanted or split from main trunk….

they are likely all from the original owner who built this house 40+ years ago.
