Re: hum....now weather...

Love it. It's past our last frost date, but it's still going to be in the mid to upper 30s tomorrow night. I'm bringing the brugmansia cuttings that are (hopefully) rooting in pots, but everything else should be fine. We are having some very strong winds while this front is rushing through.

LOL!!! I had some lady, loaded up with some expensive perennials that
usually don't come up for a while tell me I was crazy if I thought it would
snow between now and May 15th (our average frost free date.) They are
predicting snow this weekend with temps below 30 F. Oh, well. Everything
tender I've gotten is now in pots, ready to move back in the garage as
necessary.

Blessings,
Bonnie

I have to admit that I am somewhat gleeful about the predicted
temperature drop. Kept telling DH not to put the tropical plants in the
pond this weekend, as our last frost date around here is mid May. He
didn't believe me and was planning on doing it . Needless to say, he
has now changed his plans! (I don't tell him how to take care of his
patients, and he shouldn't try to second guess the family master
gardener.)

Well it is darn cold here tonight and going to get worse. They are
talking a
high of 45 on Saturday, so you know what the low will be...burrrrrrrrr
Of
course this is due my early start of uncovering plant beds since it
has been
in the 80's... now I will probably loose everything!

Still raining sporadically here...no major downpours, but doubt my
ground
can handle anymore water.

I watered every bed yesterday.  So we finally got some rain.  Not a
lot,
but
some.  So I checked weather.com again and they've done quite a turn
around
on the 10 day forecast.  It had been all highs/lows  60s/40s, no rain.
Now
it's highs 50s-60s/ lows 29-40s, possible rain every day.  All
because I
finally broke down and watered.
