I've had a few setbacks this week with poor health. I felt good enough today to get back into the garden and do some work. What a lift for my spirits!
My wife, Karen, and I planted 5 bare root trees - a peach, nectarine, apple, and two cherry trees. We also planted many eucalyptus and beefwood slips.
The soil was still damp or wet from our recent heavy rains, filled with worms, and easy to work (unlike our summertime hard clay soil).
Our local nurseries had a wide variety trees in bare root stock. Kathy Goodin's nursery stock was very enticing.
