So it has been a warm spring in the north east. All my fruit trees have leaved out and flowed. Sadly it got to 26 f Wed and the leaves on my paw paws all froze (burnt), hopefully the flowers made it though

I'm still waiting for spring! Been in the 40's - 50's here all week & I can't even get my plants out.
This is the first year my 2 paw paws both have blossoms so I'm trying to help w/ pollinating in case they don't by themselves. The leaves are only an inch long & 1 tree has blossoms in the male stage while the other has blooms in female stage so hopefully I'll get my very first paw paw!
I sure hope your buds are OK Frank
