Weather can reset a harvest

The original newsletter reported that a freeze had damaged a week’s pieris crop and shifted availability. It is a specific historical example of why seasonal timing should be reconfirmed before ordering.

Part of a mixed branch program

White and pink cherry, prunus, forsythia, pussy willow, magnolia and quince appeared alongside pieris. The article differentiated earlier cherry cuts from later, naturally timed flowering.

Family and coastal photographs

Monika, Nina and Brownie in the garden, an older calla-lily image and Cape Meares Lighthouse added personal context to the crop report. These are archived scenes rather than current crop photographs.
