They seem to be doing well. Most have a few leaves or leaves that are just
immerging from the bud. There are some that just have fuzzy buds, but
they'll probably make it. We haven't had a lot of warm days and some of the
nights have been near freezing. Had one night that got down to 29 and had a
frost the next morning. Mine have weeds too, but thought I'd wait until
they at least had a few leaves before getting the hoe out. Ouachita? I
don't recall reading about those. They're blackberries? Tell us about
them.
