When I planted on Sunday, the whole week was supposed to be no lower than 40 degrees at night.
Thank goodness I went outside last night and covered everything that was too big to haul to the garage.
When I got up this morning it was 29 degrees! There was a heavy layer of frost on the neighbor's roof.
Hopefully these nice warm blankies kept my babies safe and sound. I am not going to uncover them until I get home from work this afternoon.

What an eye-opening entry this morning! Frost. I feel I get a whole geography lesson just reading your blog. It's 88 today and no rain forecasted for south of Atlanta. I'm sure your blankets kept your babies safe and you'll be glad you have them all planted tomorrow. Bad, bad weatherperson!
ReplyDeleteWell that frost hit here too..I covered the tomato plants and they still froze!
ReplyDeleteBrrr! 29º is pretty nippy.. The blog I just visited showed snow on the ground (she was in Canada)
ReplyDeleteHope your plants stay warm and cozy under the covers.

Wow 29,-that is chilly!
ReplyDeleteIt 'dipped' to 65 today from 80 yesterday. We had rain go through and a low front.
We had frost in the area here in NY also. Thankfully, not here. I knew there was a reason I hadn't planted my hanging baskets yet. Glad you covered your flowers.
