@johnbishop and all...
Well, John! Didn't take you long to send me that tidbit! You know, I don't think il trade you your winter for mine...I wouldn't suvive 2 days in your cold!
But, do understand, John, we with sand in our toes, are truly weather wimps. We in northern Fla get a few nights of freezing temps each winter,
and we know in advance to get our coats and even a few sweaters out to enjoy, but darn if the sweaters are too 🔥 by noon and we revert to short sleeves. But, we do protect our tropical plants with ferver. Mine are really dear to me. I'll be covering my Crown of Thorns, Ponytail Palm, cactus, snake plants, the fig tree comes inside today to winter in comfort, my succulents are inside, my amaryllis are inside with lots outside in ground protected by trees and other plants. We mulch. Cover. Water. Protect.
Blessings in your weather...Elizabeth
@johnbishop, and all...We had our few hours of frost. I covered my plant babies, but sad to say it's the last time I do that job. John, it Lmost knocked me for a loop! It was in a bunch of extra pain, hard to breathe, movement is tough, it was not pretty. Decision made that moment never again. I'll have to find a teen to pay to do that little job, or Mt babies won't make it.
Noe, my delima, today it will be in the mid-70s! Need to uncover ND in a couple weeks cover again. This, my friend, is Florida life. Wonderful and good but we do have temp changes often.
Enjoy your snow...I'll have my a.c. on for a few days more...blessings, Elizabeth
