Love your videos shamus.......I live up in kingman AZ and Im probably going to come down sometime soon and pick up some trees...I started a permaculture yard over a year ago and I have been prepping our soil and creating a micro climate for trees that need it.....I'm looking forward to our 2 mulberry trees getting bigger
Neem trees are an excellent tree for arid places, they grow very fast, and once established, don't need much water at all, what surprises me is that they can take the cold of Arizona, that is good to know.
I have mango trees in the Palm Springs area and they do fantastic in the city at my rental property. It's MUCH more challenging a few miles southeast at my parent's ranch where it gets hotter in the summer and colder in the winter than Phoenix/PS. I've planted multiple varieties that struggle but the real winners are Lemon Zest and Maha Chanook so far. The rootstock does awesome too but who wants that
Love my hot climate mangoes and is that organic battery acid lol I Kidd never heard of that to get a (lower) ph interesting what do you think of brad landcastor ? As always keep rocking Shamus
Just throw a little granulated sulfur from any garden store on the ground. Soil bacteria will convert the sulfur into sulfuric acid and change the ph for you.
So it hasn't seen a freeze yet. Sky Harbor has not been below freezing since early February 2011. But a hard freeze gets more and more likely every year that passes without one.
And the concrete heat island expands further out making a hard freeze less likely. Unless we get once in a lifetime freeze like Texas which was just a freak of nature.
A tree that size will be fine several degrees below freezing, especially considering it's up against structure unless it's like 3 or 4 mornings in a row below freezing. My lemon zest was heavily damaged a few years ago when it got below freezing 3 mornings in a row with the coldest being 25 degrees and it was nowhere near that size. It was up against a barn but out in a rural area where there's not a lot of other heat sinks like in the city. It grew back and now is 13-14 feet tall and full of fruit.
Giving us jewels again I do miss those longer Jake Mace Videos

Nice looking tropical yard. And mango tree. Great video.

My fave calm strong voice of gardening reason. :D
Why do MY trees never grow like THAT?! Amazing. Maybe my mangos need acid too.

Literally got Brad's books the other day at Bookmans. About to plant the rain like crazy
@@williamhad that man has got enthusiasm and is very contagious thanks for doing good in the world hope u post it!
❤️
Can you show us samanea saman aka monkeypod tree, im curious to see how urs is doing.
😊😊😊😍😍😍
What is so secret about neem tree?
Do you have any videos where you show how to lower PH with battery acid?
Just throw a little granulated sulfur from any garden store on the ground. Soil bacteria will convert the sulfur into sulfuric acid and change the ph for you.
@@williamhad Thanks

That may be true with past trends but every year we get warmer hard freeze is less likely
