I might (now) have a few to add to the "horrible list" myself... ๐Ÿ˜•

Sorry to here that Barb
I will probably post a incomplete* obituary thread sometime in the next week.
With some it's to early to tell but there will be quite a few barrels on the list unfortunately.
I will be replacing some(barrels) in the next month so they can get set and flower on time in spring/early summer.

Another cold night last night,-6f officially,-4f in my micro-climate ๐Ÿ˜‰

Things will be"improving"starting tomorrow with highs up around freezing and above in the next few days.
Getting rid of this snow would improve our temps by at least 10f,to more normal highs,which should be in
the low to mid 40s as we finish out February. ๐Ÿ™„

Too bad about your barrels, Jim.
The obituary, hopefully, is a short list this year with all you've done to protect them.
I'm afraid to look at my too-hasty planted out stuff. Will wait ๐Ÿ˜†

Enjoy the coming warm-up...
you deserve it.

Jim, it is strange that you have such cold weather! I have +3 +7 C for five last days!

Wow. The world is strange, places are different, climates are different. The zone only indicates low temps not the highest or temps overall.
Iยดm feeling happy for your trachy Serj.
I cut most of the dried leaves of mine today. The spear was still solid but dried and pale. Max temp inside the palm hut was 17.8 c today. I still hope it will recover.
