[IBC] Florida freeze
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. Jim Lewis - - Tallahassee, FL - Nature encourages no looseness, pardons no errors.
