Most are doing well, but the Japanese beetles were ruthless to the two Plum trees and I think they may have killed the apple tree. That would be three apple tree failures so just maybe they aren't a good idea down here.
The peach and pear trees are thriving the best. So I will probably stick with those when I replace the apple tree.
The limes look great! That would be really cool to have citrus growing!
I have kind gotten in touch with my feminine side lately and canned salsa last weekend and tomatoes this morning.

I feel for you on the Mimosa tree, they suck IMO. Always a mess!
