Crazy Aunt Jean
The six foot tall palo verde is loaded with blossoms for the first time since I started it from seed 6 years ago...68,73,45,0,B
The birds and bees will be happy.
ReplyDeleteThe tree looks good. Hope it continues to do so well.
ReplyDeleteLove the palo verde. As it gets older the bark becomes more and more beautiful, not to mention those lovely soft yellow blossoms.
ReplyDeleteWow! Impressive, Crazy Aunt Jean would be proud.
ReplyDeleteAh, yes, the Arizona State tree, but we grew many at Hester Nursery on the Texas Gulf Coast for decades. Do you water yours?
ReplyDeleteYes...I have four of them - this being the largest. They get watered once a week.
ReplyDeleteJust happened across this story about one your Texas neighbors, a Bodark tree and alternative housing. Thought you might enjoy it.
