How much of a mess/bird nuisance do sour cherry trees create?
Comments (3)MDO: I have 4 tart cherry trees. The minute they are 1/2 pink, I know I have about 3 days tops to get them netted or the robins will eat them all. For me, robins are the worst culprit. This year I netted my North star and found one robin there every morning walking around the base looking for a way in. At least 3 times I came home from work to find a robin in the tree. I am sure he is the same robin! What a time trying to flush him out! After picking and pitting 15 quarts this year, I removed the net and left a few on the bottom of the tree for the birds. Not enough left to drag out the pitter for. That crazy bird came every morning for a good week and stuffed himself. I have to admire his love of cherries as he seems to want them as much as I do....See Moremy lemon tree is still messed up
Comments (11)It can not a be a Meyer what ever it is. NPR says: A cross between a lemon and a mandarin orange, the Meyer lemon has smooth golden skin the color of a fresh egg yolk. It also has a thin edible rind, a high volume of juice and none of the tartness of a regular lemon � yet its potential in the kitchen went unnoticed. This one has a thick rind, yellow color, and is very hard or impossible to squeeze at all. The taste is not like a meyer as I even ordered them last year from four winds growers in a box. I got a set of them and they they were orange in color and rounder then the ones I see in the grocery store that are marked meyers. You can't really use them like a lemon at for salad dressings or fish. I ended up eating the case of meyers like oranges with some sugar on them, because they were so good. This one tastes like lemon juice, not bad tasting, but like lemon juice. There is nothing wrong with as a lemon goes other then it's impossible to squeeze so you can't use it squeeze on your fish. And the amount of juice is small compared to a good eureka, now I wish I had gotten a eureka considering this has happened. There will be more photos added to flickr in the future. I am too depressed to upload them now. Here is a link that might be useful: NPR interview and link to story...See MoreHackberry tree mess!
Comments (2)Thanks for your reply. It probably is and it's on everything. My tomatoes are sick and they probably won't make. I'm happy it's the fall growing season and can plant new vegies....See MoreIvory Silk Tree Lilac spent bloom mess
Comments (5)someone will complain about anything. I used to have classes in a building that had a number of these planted around the hall. Of all the plants that no one has ever complained about the smell of, this is one. And this includes the days of working in nurseries where we had blocks of these by the acre...even in bloom, I cannot recall a single sly comment about the smell, other than they were in bloom and had a slight smell....See MoreToronado3800 Zone 6 St Louis
