Yikes- sending warming thoughts to you and your fig trees.
I forgot to bring my lavenders in. They sit in the back porch, so it is enclosed, but we are at -8F right now and -30F wind chill. Brought them down to my basement at 10pm to be out under a grow light. Hope they are ok.
Fingers crossed for you. We had the back yard plants covered for 2-1/2 weeks due to low temps (southern AZ). They came off for a few days, and will be covered again until the low temps get up near 40 degrees. I hope your lavenders make it, man that’s cold! One year it got down to 17 in my back yard, and i lost darn near half my frost-tender plants due to the wind being at gale force and blowing the sheets off the plants overnight.
Good luck-
Chitting potatoes!
Shallots
Garlic
Fall planted potatoes
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
JK! No sage.
Yay! Spring is coming!
Hooray! Rose Finn Apple, a.k.a. Ruby Crescent is one of my favorites.
We had the warmest February in my lifetime, temperatures in the 60s when it should be freezing. Disaster is predicted when/if cold weather returns. Fruit trees, blueberries are in bud two months too early. Average frost date here has been May 10.
