At least in South Louisiana. I had to mow the yard about 2 weeks ago and it's time again because the weeds are blooming like crazy. The tree pollen is falling on everything and giving me allergies that I never had before, must be old age.
I took the camera for a walk around the yard to see what's growing. Maybe the pics will give hope to everyone in this storm that Spring will be here soon enough.
Two year old fig tree I started from cuttings starting to put out leaves
Sorry for the bad pic, it was cloudy and the flash didn't help. 3 year old Kumquat tree with ripe fruit, this is the first year getting fruit and it's loaded with a whole 4 Kumquats.
Blueberries blooming!
2 Ghost pepper plants from last year trying to grow, I didn't cover these and I'm surprised they survived the few frosts we had.
Same with these Jalapenos
These are
Mirlitons(vegetable pear or Chayote) planted in big cattle protein tubs starting to come back to life. A frost will knock them back but these will grow about 6 years if a hard freeze doesn't kill them.
Magaton cabbage, if it grows as big as advertised it should fill that tub.
7 Pot Primo and Big Mustard Momma pepper plants I overwintered in the greenhouse coming back to life. Even the weeds in the greenhouse are starting to takeover available real estate.
I'm late on starting tomatoes this year but I should be good, the peppers are loving the warm weather. I haven't had to use a heater in the greenhouse all year=Bonus!
Kumquat seeds I started from a neighbors tree that's sweeter than the trees I already have, just a guessing game as to what they will be but it's fun.
I'm late on getting these onions in the ground too
Fatali peppers that I drug in the old greenhouse when a frost threatened and they're still holding on to leaves. I need to drag those out and replant them with good soil once I'm sure Winter is gone.
4 year old Loquat tree is bearing fruit for the first time, it looks loke the fruit will be a good size too.
The older Loquat tree is loaded with fruit, this tree is 25 years old and usually make a ton of fruit if we don't get an early freeze that kills the buds.
