Planted these two weeks ago, no frost. We've had about 1/10 of the sunshine
we normally have in spring, yet look at the sunburn! Barb

If you drink, don't drive. Don't even putt.

Barb,
I had my plants outside for 3 weeks,and they were just getting use to the direct sunshine,then the April freeze came,and I put everything in the garage for 10 days,until the big chill was over,brought them all back outside and they burnt there leaves as well,it was like the suns rays were twice as hot as before.
I didn't think I would have to adapt them all over again!!!!

Weird--succulents that fry in the sun!!!!
And we've had so little of it this spring.
they've gone mushy, doubt that growth will pop back.
I don't have the patience for this delicate stuff.
I'm going to toss 'em, and plant the banana there instead (in a month or so when the musa likes his new pot).
Good luck with yours Don
Barb
