"under performing" winter La Nina looks decent Posted by Rob N TN on August 31, 2024, 4:57 pm This will keep the palms and plants safe http://www.cpc.ncep.noaa.gov/products/predictions/multi_season/13_seasonal_outlooks/color/churchill.php

Re: "under performing" winter La Nina looks decent Posted by Fred SC on August 31, 2024, 6:17 pm, in reply to ""under performing" winter La Nina looks decent" That is good news , Rob. I just told Dorothy this morning how great her Butia looked and hope winter would be mild. We are getting a heavy rid. With thunder and lightening st present. We need it badly. With the mid 90’s we’ve had so long the earth is pretty dry. Boy this is a gully washer! Street is full and rolling .

Rain Posted by Rob N TN on August 31, 2024, 9:06 pm, in reply to "Re: "under performing" winter La Nina looks decent" Fred we got rain today and should get more tomorrow. I read where some in my town received 2". I can't remember the last time it rained. We sure need it and so glad you got some too. We are having thunder and lightning now , Blessed.

Re: "under performing" winter La Nina looks decent Posted by Rob N TN on August 31, 2024, 9:19 pm, in reply to "Re: "under performing" winter La Nina looks decent" I agree David and we deserve a break this winter. I lost a Sago and a trachy spear pulled on a medium sized "up and coming" palm and it failed to come back. Looks like a warm start to spring too. I hate protecting things in the yard.

Re: "under performing" winter La Nina looks decent Posted by TominPrestonMD on September 6, 2024, 8:06 am, in reply to ""under performing" winter La Nina looks decent" I feel like I've lucked out the past 3 winters here. Little to snow and I haven't protected anything. I planted a Trachy 3 years ago that hasn't been protected at all. It did have spear pull this past winter but recovered essentially right out the bat didn't skip a beat really.

Tom Posted by Rob N TN on September 7, 2024, 1:30 am, in reply to "Re: "under performing" winter La Nina looks decent" How are you? great to see you pop in. Seeing several fine growers here recently. I've often been amazed of your climate Tom. It screams z7b/8a and has for many years if a spike doesn't show up. Great to hear about that Trachy. The way it seems to be unfolding in the weather world, 2024 into 2025 should remain average to mild. Thanks Tom

Re: Tom Posted by TominPrestonMD on September 8, 2024, 11:54 am, in reply to "Tom" Hopefully it stays mild for all of us for sure....I'm too lazy these days to protect anything 😂
