Got down to - 4 F. here last night. Saw where Fairbanks Alaska was
around - 50 F. .
Here is a question for you. How are my plants faring here in the lush
-4 F. with no snow cover Vs. the snow covered Fairbanks plants ?


Is this a trick question?

Plants covered with snow never go below 32 F. Sort of adds another
dimension to the idea of zones.
