Lingering leaves in the vineyard
2 Comments Published by Pam Buda December 6th, 2009 in Sonoma Lifestyle. by Pam BudaA cold storm is blowing down from Canada tonight and may bring snow to the upper elevations of Napa and Lake Counties, which are visible from here in Sonoma County. In a couple of days all the leaves will be gone from the vineyard but there are stragglers hanging on. It seems that only a couple of weeks ago it was the peak of fall color.
Soon it will be time to think of pruning, which has already begun in the Dry Creek Valley in Healdsburg. Next week the daffodil shoots will poke up their heads in the garden. Two months to go till the mustard is up and early spring gets underway.
We had quite a downpour last night but this morning the sun eventually came out with spectacular cloud formations. Stay warm and thanks for your posts.
Thank you Marian-the downpour passed us by but these last two mornings have been very icy! Take care.
