It's all about the fruitfulness of the buds.<br /><br />Tomasso: My goodness...what would your area be like if you had 3 years of drought like we just experienced?

Now, with a drought, we are losing the raspberries. Have had 35% of normal rainfall since April--almost none throughout June, and none in sight for first half of July. Very serious here.<br /><br />With deep roots, grapevines are holding their own but those critters don't show the true damage until the following year.<br /><br />Looks like our desiduous trees are suffering too--and if it keeps up through July, there will be no corn this year.<br />Thomashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07322028233207741737noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5287585119513058786.post-89382935229778511822016-07-02T17:56:54.450-07:002016-07-02T17:56:54.450-07:00VG: I'm so glad to hear this!
