Good weather and Good growing to you!  |
Thank you Caloosamusa. I have not made any cuts and will take your advise. I have a lot to learn about gardening this far south. Things are a bit different in Montana where I lived for the last 12+ years! Needless to say I was not growing bananas and papayas there!
