The Brushpile

Round #1 is about to end; then there are other bands!
What needs to happen is normal rain at regular intervals returning, like it was 7 years ago!
This is Roughleaf Dogwood, which will grow in harsh conditions where other dogwoods won't grow. Roughleaf Dogwood is thicket forming, is a bush/small tree like plum, and is the most preferred browse of the dogwoods.
Here is the suckering. All of the stems are Roughleaf Dogwood.

Congrats on the rain! We are still in the dry zone with only 1/2" of rain falling last Friday and before that it was about 3 weeks since we had any and that was just 2/10's...They say we may get some tonight and tomorrow but not holding our breath on that deal...Rain! Once again the Brushpile has a river and a pond full of water!
The ground here is totally saturated, and if it rains tomorrow, I expect to see flooding. I wish rain would come at regular intervals. Good luck on getting some rain in Oklahoma, you have seen enough drought!

Good to hear, looks like our 60" last year may continue this year here, 1.2" the other day several more on the way.
Send some of that down here in July and August!
It happens about once every couple years. Now it needs to get regular rain so things will grow as they should, and trees can form nuts, apples can make apples, and I will actually get to eat my first apple in 8 years!
Late blooming is equally important to late drop time. If there is no fruit it doesn't matter when it drops!

Man am I glad your getting rain Brush you suffered for so long, you deserve a break!
Thanks, I know I'll see some good growth at long last!
The soil is saturated and the river is raging!
I hope there is timely rain this Summer.
