There are more but this should do

Do you get freezing temps in Houston? How do these Terracotta pots hold up?

I feel better about myself now. I'm not nearly obsessed as I thought I was. You guys are worse.

We do get down into the teen from time to time but that is rare. This is my first year trying them out. The problem is they won't see freezing temp at all... I will bring them in the shed if we have prolong night temp below 40.

It is all fine, untill you have to leave for work for a week in the middle of a heatwave and she has to water all of them twice a day. That is pretty much the only moment I am gently reminded I wanted to reduce the number of trees.

looks nice and green, your care is showing through! Now put it in a box and you can ship it to CA. Thanks

I call them friends, not trees. It always easy to have an extra friend. Lol.

Are your trees strapped down or is that irrigation?

They're strapped down as I get some crazy wind storms here regularly and on a normal day it's usually windy as well.

Wow that is amazing!

 

[John P.]

So much more orderly than mine. Mine is utter chaos.

Me, too. I’m trying. Need to set up my irrigation in the New Year and repot about 50 trees.

Nowhere to step. Watering will be interesting
