The seedlings in this picture are 7 months old.Whew! Just finished reading all 64 pages!
Anyone else suffer excessive wind damage out here in Calif.?I was lucky and didn't suffer any major wind damage. The day before the big wind storm, I planted a mango seedling, didn't stake it down very well, and it ended up leaning over a bit. In my defense, I hadn't been paying too much attention to the weather forecast, wind storms tend to be unusual here, and the corner where the tree is planted is pretty protected, but not against that storm! I've since righted it and staked it better.

i read an article about growing apples in the tropics, what they did was take an apple tree from a northern country and when the apple trees went dormant in the winter the trees were sent to a tropical location that never got cold, when the apple trees were planted they grew just like they would in spring and started producing like normal but since there never was a temperature change the apples never went back dormant after fruiting and ended up producing 3-4 crops of apples a year growing great. so almost any apple tree could be grown in warm climates.
