4-8-10 SHORT HILLS: Yesterday set a record high temp in parts of the metro area, it was 90° in some spots or July in April. We’re supposed to get a T-storm tonight and cooler weather tomorrow.
I’ve done more pruning the last few days and sorted out the mess of crushed bamboo. Where bamboo is native, there are no big overhanging trees that lose big branches to heavy snow storms. Here big ash tree branches fell on the bamboo, with the snow, and flattened them. Many shoots were broken, but others were just knocked over. I went through all the stands of bamboo yesterday and today, cutting down the broken shoots, but was able to uncover many and stand them upright. If they stay up, it’ll all work out fairly well.
New blooms: grape hyacinth, redbud, dandelion.
Saucer Magnolia.
