We have a fire going in the fireplace--thought we were done with that!
Low yesterday was 43oF. Not a big deal, but I wish I had brought in my wife's tiny new Traveller's palm in a pot. It is OK, but did not like that chill. --Erik

Nice trachys you got there Kory! I'm sure you can't wait to be swimming around in that pool looking at them.
No frost here either night the lows where 37f and 36f, much colder then I would have liked. I covered my crepe
myrtles just in case, since they where calling for 33f on that last night.
It was tough having to leave all my plants in the truck from my Florida load, I just wanted to look at them!

Yeah this damn weather ended up double-dipping and lasting twice as long as originally forecast. We have exceeded 60f only once in the past 7 days! Mid 30s was the lowest we hit two nights in a row. It's been 40s at night and rain every day otherwise. Finally the forecast shows normal weather returning by Friday and remaining through at least the 14-day forecast (70s/80s highs, lows 50f or higher). Finally the bananas will start moving again... I'm lucky I didn't get the time to put in any vegetables yet. I usually have them in by May 1st at the latest.
