February fruit tree blooms

February fruit tree blooms

Everything starts to come to life this month. Our peach trees bloomed and now is when we start praying for pollinators. I let the cilantro and some broccoli go to flower to help attract early pollinators.

It is also time to pray that there will not be another really hard freeze this year. But, nature knows best and we have learned to live with whatever happens. Here is a picture of a peach tree in bloom. It smells beautiful.

Unfortunately, it is also time to prune your peach and pear trees. This is a lot of work, but it is a good workout. You can place the blooming branches in a jar or vase and enjoy the blooms inside.
