Yikes! Freeze Warning for Tonight!!

Blooms forming on my Creeping Phlox

Just as Spring is getting into full swing…




Blooms are forming and getting ready to open…

Hosta pushing up through the leaves.

More and more plants are pushing through the leaves left over from last Autumn…




We find out that we have a Freeze Warning in place for tonight (way more than a Frost Warning)… 




That's right, here in the Twin Cities the overnight temps are expected to be in the 20s (yuck!)…

Foam-covered external pipes...

The plants are just going to have to tough it out (I don't have any annuals planted yet).




Unfortunately I've got the sprinkler system activated already… so check out my beautiful work covering the external pipes (don't you love colored duct tape?)...
