When you endeavor to do something, you try hard to make it happen. A determined student might endeavor to get straight As on her report card. The ordinary objects of human endeavor â property, outward success, luxury â have always seemed to me contemptible, wrote Albert Einstein. Presumably, NASA had loftier objects in mind when they named one of their space shuttles Endeavour, using the British spelling.
Make sure your area has proper almond growing conditions. Almond trees, which are native to the hot and arid climate of the Middle East and South Asia, do best with hot summers and mild winters and do not adapt to other conditions especially well. Almonds do not usually grow at all in colder climates.
Temperatures and Times. Store almonds in the shell up to eight months at an indoor temperature of 68 degrees Fahrenheit. Keep them for 12 months or longer at a refrigerator temperature of 40 degrees Fahrenheit or lower. Store shelled almonds about two months at room temperature or up to a year at 40 degrees Fahrenheit. Keep them safely for a year or more at a freezer temperature of 0 degrees Fahrenheit. Store slivered or sliced almonds in the freezer to maintain freshness because they do not keep as long as whole nuts.
