Happy Thanksgiving from Fresno


Josue Diaz

Recommended Posts

Wishing you all a fun and safe Thanksgiving holiday.

We're in full transition to winter in Fresno, 50s/60s throughout the day, with fog cover most days. 70s and sunny if the stars align (which sounds like a San Francisco summer :floor:) . Lots of annuals are holding on to color, but they'll soon start getting powdery mildew and will need to be cut out. For now, palms seem to be loving the increase in humidity and some cloudforest plants are loving it too.

Is there a house in there? :winkie: Looks great. Happy Thanksgiving!

Have you chopped the Ficus auriculata back yet? It'll turn into a massive tree in your climate.

Yes, a neighbor threw a bunch of cuttings away several years ago. I took a few home and planted them.

Lol yes there's a house back behind all that.  I've taken cuttings for friends but I really want it to go up, to open up space below it.
