I've noticed other people writing about signs of spring in their blogs but I haven't noticed many signs here. Its still warm but a cold blast is coming in at the end of the week. We are going to prune roses and grapes in the next week or so and then I expect a few weeks later to see the buds sprouting.local alienhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14586011850451326646noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5227064496185547313.post-34709406738914185072020-02-02T19:06:31.811+00:002020-02-02T19:06:31.811+00:00It is plum season here in NZ.
