It is January 1st and we are not likely done with cold weather for this season. As a result, a Norchester Garden Club Special report on Frost and Freezes has been prepared by the Horticulture Chairperson. This document outlines the difference between Frost and Freeze and the options for preparing your plants to survive our changing Texas winters.
Included in the document are links to other Texas A&M resources including how to build a "cold frame" temporary greenhouse
Potted plants are the easiest to protect. Just by moving them into a corner under a protective overhang will help a lot. Incandescent lights (not LED) add needed heat when the plant is covered with a frost cloth.
