@@dirtylocustgardencenter7200 Thank you. I am outside Merced. I have my cactus, succulents, and desert roses, under 40% shade, facing east. House shade is used to cover sensative plants after around six hours of sun, desert roses get the most. I am going to look for Maples in Spring since they can be okay. Glad to see a source of quality plants kinda locally, presently closest nursery is in Fresno
Lime sulphur the wood apply a wood hardening agent the cover in a two part epoxy. Will end the rot that could spread down and up. Also epoxy stimulates a faster healing as it gives the cambium something clean to push against. 🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️. Maple wood digests so fast if your soil is healthy with microbial life. Beautiful tree❤
Wait wait, what day is national beer day?! I didn't know such a day existed. National Beer day for me is just any day that ends with Y and has any type of occasion attached to it... PS, what beer did you drink? I got to drink a Pliney The Younger on Tap 2 weeks ago for a limited release here in Fresno! Beat that!
Had a great visit to your amazing garden this over the weekend Ron! What a massive transformation.. Look forward to returning sometime! Thanks again for the great hospitality on Saturday!
Hi Gregory, on occasion, we do. There is so much involved in packing, securing the tree, travel back and forth to get packing material and shipping. It just has to be worth our time 🙂 Thank you for your comment 🙂!!
