Garden

@1Snickers , it has been a busy Fall.  Soon it will be time to get a winter project going after a month of rest.  LM

@Lilysmom   Luckily it looks like not terribly bad damage done. I thought about you after the storm. Glad you reported in to let us know.

@PINKdogWOOD , thanks for thinking of me.  The garden came out pretty well.  At lakeside, you wouldn’t even know there was a storm.  We are thankful!!!  LM

@LilysmomIt looks like that maple tree is kaput (too much bark off the trunk lost)

You can right the apple tree but it will need some cabling and a rubber hose with stakes to keep it upright. It should be staked for an entire year but with some give so that the tree can rock slightly.

The rocking movement with regular breezes and wind will help with root formation. Make sure the roots on the rootball are teased outward and not circling the rootball (to prevent girdling) when you go to replant it back.

@JustJazzmom , thanks.  It would be nice to save this one.  It is the oldest Honeycrisp tree.  LM
