Default Nasty winter storm

Brazilian, Cardaba and Hawaiian Apple did not do so well. These are the east end of the patch with the wind coming from the west, so these were on the leeward side. So, not sure why they took the hit. Branches from neighbor's pine tree confirm wind direction. Brazilian was ripped out of the ground, everything else was folded. No other problems. Two Belle stalks with full bunches, and Misi Luki with fruit, close by, did just fine, as did others hanging fruit. Another supposedly nastier storm coming tonight.
