Talking about the fruit trees - great news. Not so good for patio plants. Sorry to be so unclear.

Glad to see some decent weather for you.

It’s sunny and 68 here.

I examined the aftermath of the ice storm today. Our beautiful magnolia tree is not so beautiful now, it is thinner and lopesided now. WE do have a bunch of firewood for the outdoor firepit when it drys out. The container plants may sprout new grow after we cut back the dead stuff. My two Meyers lemons survived, along with a couple of other plants, but I sure don’t know how.

We are really cautious about planting the garden this weekend, but may do it anyway. We gambled and lost on the containers plants, so what’s a dozen veggie plants if we loose them. The store has more. My seedlings are not yet big enough for the ground yet, maybe another week. Our 90% last frost date is Mar 17.

We have some direct sow seeds, but they may have to wait a week or so, we have a lot on our plate this weekend, plus the prospect of being rainy is moderate.

I have not even went to get a cattle panel for a grow arch, the procrastination is starting to show!

No problem. I read between the lines on that earlier reply. I've got to get my garlic into the ground this week.
