That's NORTH Florida. We're gonna have our first "hard freeze"
of the season tonight and tomorrow night. Temps will be below
freezing for 6-7 hours each night, going down to about 20 F.
I've mulched in all my crape myrtle in pots. Have put a couple
of bougainvillea under plastic, and my few remaining mame in
bonsai pots, and my azaleas will go on the ground under the
tables, nestled in pine needles.
I know. You northerners are chuckling into your beards. But
our trees aren't genetically aware of freezing temps on their
roots, even when they're the same species you grow.
I doubt anyone south of me needs to worry much.
