AR:Breaking Dormancy


Like clockwork, no matter what kind of summer they've had, each 
year at the this time half and higher arilbreds that had gone 
dormant pop up like daff foliage in the spring.  One day there is 
nothing, but the next day there are tips of foliage showing..  The 
last week in August the arilbreds break their dormancy.  Is this a 
harbinger of fall?  Is it happening elsewhere where arilbreds grow 
or just in my garden?

Since the rain gauge at the nearby Enid dam has already recorded 
over 55 inches of rainfall this year (5 inches last week), I was afraid 
of casualties with the arilbreds because it has been so humid here 
all summer without a break.  I am happy to see foliage behind each 
marker, and rows of seedlings are all up now.  No arilbred has 
rotted - even in this swamp.  Welcome back, arilbred buddies!  
You're tougher than I thought.
