gonna be in the teens by me tonight, supposedly single digits with wind chill. Thankfully everything that is moving is in a pot and can be moved into garage. Stuff in the ground hasn't leafed out just yet. My in ground mume have opened a flower or two. I expect the rest of the buds to get ruined. pretty annoyed because there are so many buds but what can you do...

Yup! Here we are supposed to have a swing of 32° difference in 2 days. As you said though, we knew it would happen.

Small enough to toss a bucket over it? I have a farming muck bucket I toss over my peony tree that is in ground.

Unfortunately no. Probably about 5 feet tall. Planned on chopping it down after the damn thing bloomed. :D

I saw the first robins of the year this morning, one of the first signs of spring here in Michigan. 16 degrees forecasted for tomorrow night. luckily most of the trees seem to have made it through the last heat wave.

I've got trees in leaf and the forecast is for 23 F tomorrow night and low 30s during the weekend. Great...

We are coming off of low 70'sF and will drop as low as 17F in the next 24 hours. FIRST time ever I moved three plants to the shed as they are showing flower buds, leaf, or both :eek: Fortunate with the deciduous so far - they are all just starting and will be ok. If they were in leaf they would have to go to a barn at the farm as I have no room.

I put my trees through hell, and this weekend even has me doing the shuffle. gahh

I share our experience - first time for me to shuffle anything, crazy ass weather for certain!
