    ... A premature blooming cycle will cause mutated leaves and really mess a trees natural rhythm up. (must be Catholic trees). ...
    Naw, rhythm is so yesterday. We use Natural Family Planning, based on hard science, now. You, of course, will not need to worry about that, given your age and propensity for premature blooming... if you get my drift.

    Comes a time when we guys are all shootin' blanks. Momma got the plumbing fixed years ago. Guess that makes everything we do fall into the "recreation and entertainment" category. Shame we only get entertained and recreated once a year, if we're lucky.

    Didn't get pruning done on my trees, and just heard this weekend on Austin Gardeners' Show that I shouldn't prune trees unless absolutely necessary. Reason given is that trees were stressed pretty badly last summer and '12 is shaping up to be a repeat. So apparently, don't prune trees unless absolutely necessary

    When I was trying to decide what to do, I went to the experts at Oma's Garden (Old 440). She has forgotten more than I will ever hope to know and can give great advice.

    Pomegranates make good dividers/barriers too.

    More like a bush or tall hedge. Gets full and needs lot of space, 6 to 8' tall. You will get fruit though.
