Beautiful job on the orchard 🌱🌳

Thank you!

Thank you for update on your garden ! Good luck with blackberries, we might try to grow them too. This year we planted few special raspberry plants, which supposed to grow in our zone 10a. I hope they will survive.

I had searched for a raspberry variety for our zone a couple of years ago and couldn’t find any. I hope the ones you found do well. Best of luck with them!

Well done getting your lychee to fruit at such a small size. My Lychee in container has been the biggest failure to date in my garden. I've had to rescue it from near death twice in four years and it looks like it is dying again. In its defense, it has taken a lot of beating in tropical storms over its short life but isn't quick to recover like my other plants.

Thank you! Sorry to hear you are having trouble with your Lychee. After 2 near death rescues, sounds like you are doing the best you can. Sometimes mother nature makes things a little difficult. Hopefully, you will be able to nurse it back to health. Best of luck and thank you for visiting.

Do still have your Hass avocado?

[@Zone10aBackyardOrchard]

I still do. During winter a couple of years ago it almost died. I cut off about half of the leader branch and most of the side branches. This season it’s doing much better and is pushing out healthy leaves. It’s even trying to set a very small amount of fruit. I will likely thin them out so that it can focus on it’s recovery.
