Seems to me that I am seeing a large number of triple socketing this year.
(meaning 3 flowers out of one socket instead of the usual 1 or 2)
Anybody know if this is a genetic trait, cultural, or weather related? I don't
remember seeing any last year, but then I might not have been noticing it.
(Takes a long time for some of us to become observant)
I have seen it in a number of terminal points and a few side branches.
