Default Hallo!

Yeah yeah, I know I registered a bit ago and haven't been that quick to post anything. I finally got around to it here, today. First, I thank rmplmnz for his generous contributions to my efforts. I also recently had the chainlink fence removed from the backyard, so I've also got a few pictures of a "work in progress." I just need to viciously trim the damned oak trees Clearly, the jungle near the south edge of the property will be most challenging.

Good morning Ivanov!

Don't be too hasty in removing those oaks. In the winter they create a warm zone (microclimate) that will keep the immediate area a few degrees warmer during Freezes. That will make a big difference in cold protection.

Good weather to you!!

Oh yes, I didn't plan to. The lot is only close to half an acre if I encroach on the creek and neighbors' property. Luckily, my neighbor does not care because she would much rather have fruit trees and banana plants than weeds and raccoons. I only removed the dead trees and most of the underbrush so far.

Those trees are a BIG help for the storm winds and cold snaps. The wide-open areas get hit the worst, so I usually plant close to the creek, the house, and the perimeter for the big stuff. Smaller annuals go wherever =P

You will also fing that that Live Oaks (Quercus virginiana) will hold up to strong winds better than any other tree in your area. They make a good wind break in hurricanes if they are 50 to 100 feet (15 to30 meters) away from the house.

Good growing and weather to you Ivanov!!

Now that I have more time on hands, I certainly hope to get a lot more done in much less shorter time than a year, hahaha.

Ivanov,
Years ago both the U.S. and Russian navy were doing joint experiments in the Black Sea, and I was briefly involved with it. I remember corresponding with a Mr. Kuznetsov from the Kuban who was thinking of taking a faculty appointment at Univ. of Florida. Was that you ? !!

Sorry, Ivanoz Kuznetsov is a generic name I used to sign up. It's the russian equivalent of "john smith."

That's some very bad dictionary you used.
