The strawberries I have will take a hard frost, the other 4 may yet
shoot.

I'll be covering them tomorrow night , temps predicted to be around 24°F
and I don't want to chance it . I'm just thrilled to finally get some to
grow , I've had a couple of failures . Probably because of the quality of
plants I bought . Funny thing is these were just as cheap as the ones that
failed .
