Default New plants today! Question...

"Rob Halgren"
A bigger question is a) was your barn warmer than the outside air,


No, it's just a horse barn. I mean there was windbreak but it was
still 32 degrees no matter how you slice it and that was at the warmest
part of the day (2pm).

and b) what was your postman doing leaving live plants outside in
February?


I haven't had good experience with deliveries here. We have a
very long driveway straight up a hill. We keep it plowed but the
last delivery I had they literally threw it in a snowbank down at the
bottom of the hill. I just happened to be looking to the side as I
was driving up and I saw the letters "Fin..." I brushed away the
snow to reveal a white box, of all colors, and the words "Fine
Artwork - Handle With Care" which was printed all over the
buried box. Had I not been looking in that spot at the moment
it would have sat there until spring melt. There was no damage
to the artwork so I let it slide.

The plants I'm watching closely. They seem to have suffered but
I won't know for sure for a few days. =I HOPE I'm wrong=
