And good afternoon/evening one and all. Rather a hot mid-70F (21C) degree day here and it keeps getting warmer as the day progresses. Many of the Spring flowering trees are in full bloom - from Washington’s famous Cherry Trees at the Tidal Basin, to red bud trees, to ornamental pear and apple and regular cherry trees. Daffodils by the bushels too. This week is peak bloom for the DC cherry trees (when 80% of the flowers are open).
Moved our hardy banana tree container (65 gallons of dirt and about 8 stalks) outside today as well. We are scheduled to get one or two cold nights next week, but, it’s time.
Today Ive been fooling around with a new “chuck” on the lathe and a piece of old sycamore and turned out a little bud vase.
