Was out driving in and around Pebble Creek Country Club after early voting in Texas. All grown from average size. Estimated 15-25 years old from planting. I Saw a few of these houses built. Coldest temp since 1990 was 14 here a few years ago. Killed Queens. I have the only remaining 20 year old Queen I know of except in Houston and San Antonio and points south in zone 9-10.
