The worst thing about all this warmth here is that it is not preparing us for the onslaught of winter. I havent even wrapped any trachies yet!!!!
So true, I worry about everyones plants back east. That can be very hard on plants if if the temps drop too quickly. 😐

Here's to all the global warming pushers, may your winters be -30 below and four feet of snow in your driveway. Because I want you happy.

Maybe he won't. I just heard from a palm-o-phile who isn't on the forums, only FB, in Oklahoma City. He gets colder than sid and does minimal protection. I'll follow his palms this winter so I can vicariously enjoy the 'thrill' of keeping 'em in the ground.

so far 30 degress F at 38 degrees North and 34 degress North in CA where I have plants. Hopefully it won't dip too much lower than that as I have unprotected zone 10 plants in zone 9b.

New lows!
*Not yet official!
Airport: -6.7C
Downtown: -3.6C
(WOW does the open water really help to regulate the temperature!)
And, the garden near K-town 'only' hit -4C
First hard freeze downtown. I think the annuals will now be finished!
