Thumbs up An observation !

If I had all high or tall plants blooming I would surly loose plants to all this wind we have been having here in South Florida. Usually my Apples would be in bloom this time of the year but last year I got 3 blooms so I guess they are on a vacation .. BUT in these occasional high winds I am sure I would have lost them . I have had 4 storms in the last two weeks with high winds enough to topple over a 12 to 14 foot plant with fruit on them ! As it is now I have 2 Cavendish with fruit and 2 more that could bloom a little later in the year .. But these plants are lower and the houses protect them from these high wind gusts, Im just getting torn leafs. Just saying its nice to see Mother nature deposing all this rain here but Im glad she has not been able to blow over my fruit!
