Re: now Weigela & WEIRD winter weather

It's been doing that here all winter. Strangest bloody weather I have
ever seen!70 for a few days, back in the 20's, back to the 70's and back
and forth. 76 for today's high, down to 22 tomorrow night. That's in
Dallas of course, colder out here. My poor plants are SO confused. The
daff & leucojum foliage is about a foot high already. I'm sure I've lost
some things. I'll know in early March when I see what grows and what
doesn't....

I would have to agree with Kitty... got to be your warm weather. I think
this is its 3rd winter here (or maybe 2nd).... Mine is in the sun, but not
nearly as hot as yours would be.

Speaking of winters here... this year is gonna be bad for my plants...
weather in the 60's, rain, 48 hours later -26 wind chill with no snow cover!
Now warming back up (weird how 20 degrees feels like a heat wave) and
snowing here, expecting snow thru the weekend.... Poor plants got to be
stressing with this weather in the last week.
