COLD WEATHER ALERT!
Prepare for upcoming cold weather with these suggestions:
1. Cover all tender plants with Frost Cloth or blanket.
2. Water all your plants before the cold weather hits, because a dry plant will suffer more damage.
3. Make sure you do not use plastic to cover your plants.
4. Make sure your flower beds and plants are mulched well to keep plant roots insulated. |
