Ron, I HATE to hear of your cold weather woes -- I can just visualize you and Vivian working out in that chill in an attempt to protect your trees and plants. With the oranges, does the fruit drop but the trees can survive? Of course, we don't have semi-tropicals here. Our worst damage comes from snow only covering half of a bush, for instance, so that the top half can die from the cold or wind. I read last week that some growers hire a helicopter to keep the air circulation going around their crops. Could you put out several electric blowers? Penny.
