This should be a warning for me next time we have warm spring weather, and I’m tempted to plant tender things outside before their time:
The KSL weather guy is calling it “weather whiplash” and it is surprising how cold it has gotten after last week’s heat! We had temps in the high 60s and even 70 last week; then it rained and cooled on Sunday, and then we got snow flurries and highs in the 40s yesterday and today. I hope it doesn’t hurt my nectarine and cherry fruit — the trees have been blossoming for about a week now. My apples are nearly blossoming, so they should be OK.
My forsythia and flowering plum blossoms are starting to decline, and leaves are coming out pretty well. There are a few blossoms on the flowering cherry shrubs in the front yard, but not much yet. Hopefully the cold doesn’t kill those blossoms. I can also see that my crabapples are close to flowering, but they’ll hold off a little longer, I think.
My tulips and daffodils are doing great! I need to take a few photos and post them here.
