For those of you in the path of this brutal arctic blast of cold air, keep in mind that IF you are storing your tropical plants in an unheated garage or attic, you may lose most if not all of your plants. Three years ago, I lost dozens of plumeria stored in the garage and attic (placed on top of heating ducts!) when we had similar temperatures over a two-day period. I am talking about lows in the teens or even single digits and highs in the teens and 20's. Your garage and attic will get down to about the same temperature as that outside.
sub-freezing temperatures
I just lost most of mine in a cold frame mishap. Is there anyway to save them if some of the tips are still firm?
