Very nice report.

NONE survived? *Rats! * * *

Next year?

Should be doable. *Late frost killed ALL the walnut and butternut

I would definitly like to have another go at it if there are some
seeds available next year for this rodent chastened neophyte. Welded
cages, electric gridded kill zone, terrier patrols, the whole arsenal
this time.
