Default Re: Pitogo's First Flag in Florida

The cold did a thorough job. Ninety percent of the flowers fell off in 2 weeks, and the 12 or so fruit that made it were severly dwarfed and turned black. A big wind broke the stalk at emergence and I found the miserable racime on the ground. Tossed it and cut down the big p-stem. A good strong pup has taken over and is 7' tall now at emergence. Oh well - lost a year's production. Still had extra pups to share with forum folks.
