Grim, Freezing Weather


We are having the coldest weather in three years.  The temperatures fell to 26 degrees last night with the expectation to go down to 21 tonight.  We covered as many sensitive plants as possible last night and transferred all the container plants to the garage or shop.  Our hope is for the best but we expect the worst.  I may be replacing many plants this spring....sad.  I did water in deeply yesterday because this is suppose to blunt the effects of a freeze.  Many of are plants have a deep layer of mulch so I'm hoping the roots will survive.
