Noticed this morning that the blossom has remained undamaged, or appears to be after a -2.6 Cdeg frost 3 days ago, Does Nashi normally have blossom that is some what frost torrent?

The boar-family was in the reservoir-marsh again; they don't seem to be rooting it up; I think they're commuting to the water-hole; sure would like one of the young-ones on a spit. Saw seven deer in the vicinity of the farm, more than total in the last two years; I think that mountain lion was scaring them off, but they're baaack. Do you need a license to hunt pigs over there, i know you resections on hunting bambee's

That was mentioned a while back on here about selecting for taste, so i did that last summer with my Benhorn, gave up after about 20 carrots as i couldn't pick any difference

Dont have Pukekos either thankfully, though they are pretty bird, copse you would have them having the water channel down the back of your garden? Ive got a one year old Nashi pear grown from seed that is covered with blossom, is this normal to flower so young?

Yes large heads about the size of one and half dinner plates. If the birds were that much of a problem i could always rap a seed head or two in netting
