Just another wet Tuesday

After a cool, but dry weekend, and a beautiful 66F and sunny Monday, Tuesday dawned with heavy rain and thick clouds. Over the past few days the apricots have started flowering, with the Puget Gold and the oldest of the Tomcots flowering first.

By late Monday evening there were a lot of flowers opened on the Puget Gold and a few more on the Tomcot. With all the rain in the forecast, I decided to try hand pollinating with a very fine paint brush. I have no idea if it worked, but I guess we'll find out in a few weeks.

I would guess that the container sweet cherry, and the two container peaches will be the next to flower.
