Doesn't appear that we lost any of the trees, but we did have substantial leaf loss on the two older Meyer Lemon trees. Hopefully they will just bounce back with new leaves and set some fruit this year.

We have flowers budding on the peach trees, a couple of the little apple trees, and one of the pear trees already, so it appears they think it is Spring time. Hope a late freeze doesn't come through like it did last Spring and zap a bunch of flowers and newly formed fruit.

Interestingly enough, we don't have any flowers on the Japanese magnolias yet, and they are usually the first sign of impending Spring around here. Seen quite a few trees blooming in Tallahassee, however, so I guess ours are just taking their time.
