Sign of spring - February 24, 2008
This is one of the CrabAppleLane
mirliton vines. It is just now peeking out for 2008. It is a sign that spring is just around the corner. The definitive sign is when the pecan trees start to bud. We had a disappointing mirliton season last year. I think we only picked about a half dozen. I don't know how many mirlitons three vines should produce but I'm certain its substantially more than that.
wish we were seeing signs of green but I'm sure that's quite a few weeks away. We are expecting a bit of snow again tomorrow &/or Tues. Nice today with temps in upper 20's to 30's---may have to get my snowshoes out:) Enjoy the day!
I'm looking forward to seeing the spring when I come for my visit in March ;o) Carol
