Re: Frost is on the Pumpkin

Several places in this part of Iowa set record low temps. last
night...Cedar Rapids where Mardi lives and here where I live being two
of them. Ceres...how about over your way (2.5 hours west)? I don't know
what is going on with this weather...hopefully its just a very strange
cold snap and not a harbinger of a rough winter to come!!

It got down to 23 degrees last night. I'd covered my colchicums, but
they<br>bit the dust anyway. Sigh. They were great while they lasted! I
can't<br>remember getting a killing frost the first day of October.
Mid-October,<br>yes. But not this early! I still have an ornamental
grass garden to put<br>in for a friend who just built a new house.
Better get my butt in gear.<br>Mardi<br>Iowa
