As I'm sure you know, when growing them as annuals, you have to trick artichokes into thinking they're in their second year and thus should start flowering. I thought the slow poke didn't "get the message," but apparently it did.Eight Gate Farm NHhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15877942009419912353noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-313396449380749054.post-33219792086731596632016-10-24T15:50:32.983-04:002016-10-24T15:50:32.983-04:00Thanks Margaret.

We haven't been here long enough to get a feel for the apple years, but we do know this year was especially weak.Eight Gate Farm NHhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15877942009419912353noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-313396449380749054.post-18662011589379497742016-10-24T15:48:38.278-04:002016-10-24T15:48:38.278-04:00Thanks, Michelle.

I can sympathize with you on the apples - I had a similarly bad plum/cherry year. That's the way it goes with fruit, isn't it? A sure thing it's not!<br /><br />And anyone who has gardened for any length of time would look at that tobacco leaf comparison and just simply nod their head...yup, that's how it usually goes :)Margarethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15949946977793864054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-313396449380749054.post-32372200295445864702016-10-24T10:23:23.774-04:002016-10-24T10:23:23.774-04:00No frost here yet, but maybe some rain, which is g...No frost here yet, but maybe some rain, which is good news.
