    I am sowing under lights right now. We had about 90 days of snow cover well before it
    was time to put the jugs out. I wasn't able to get any outside, but the weather is warming
    up and the snow is gone. I am going to do several jugs but not like last year (140 types
    of perennials.) There were a lot I never got into the ground.

    Question. I have a trunk full of perennials from a greenhouse. The temps will get down
    to 32 degrees about 7:00 am for an hour or so. I have put a gallon+ of very hot water in
    the trunk in the middle of them. I think they will be OK considering how briefly it will be
    freezing. What do you think?
