No, my trees aren't wearing miniskirts and furry boots in February, but I am seeing a few apical buds trying to open up in this warm spell. Mainly happening on some collected hornbeams, and all the confused buds are in the Apex of the tree. They are in morning sun but shaded the rest of the day.
Is this a sign that they are trying to break dormancy? I'm assuming these buds will die off next week when we return to more normal winter temperatures, but I'd hate it if this will affect the whole tree as I've worked pretty hard to raise vigor in this material so I can start real work on it next year.
