RE: frozen hosta


The gardens will not be at their best but in our area there should be some plants that are nice by that time. Unless the weather turns really cold we should have at least half in the gardens and all in the growing houses.  We are supposed to be in the 70s next week.  I am about 450 miles south of where you are going.  I guess that it is not that far as the crow flies.

Thanks to all for the advice.  I kept telling myself that they will return this morning when I cut clump after clump.  What a mess......but the Virginia Bluebells are up and beautiful, hellebores are having a wonderful year, and the Bloodroot survived the freeze. I will just have to focus on the survivors while the others recover.Thanks again,Judy in VA
Mary and all: I am going to be at Duke Univ. in NC the week of April 11-18. Will there be hostas to see? I ask because here on the  ND/MN border, our snow is just melting and only the bravest, most-protected  tulips are just beginning to send up foliage. It will be end of May before we see our hosta pips. If you have no more cold temps or unexpected freezes, can I expect to visit some hosta gardens? Kis
