Just last week my husband was asking me why I hadn't planted all the plants that are still in our garage. I told him that they were tender and that our freeze date was 4/15 and Atlanta always made sure to live up to that date... and a few times even went past it! And I think this is the first Freeze since Ground Hog Day too.
Well here it is, sliding in right on time. He couldn't believe it. He'd never paid attention to it before. He just knew he couldn't understand why I was buying more plants when I still had some in the garage.
My question is this...
Can someone tell me how my 18 inch tall lilies are going to fair with tonight's 30 degree temps and tomorrows 28 degree temps? I don't have any clotches that tall and I'm afraid sheets will snap off the tops, meaning no flowers. Will the fact that its only 2 nights and not really sustained temps. mean that they might make it through this alright? Any serious Georgia lily folks out there or should I go to the Lily column? I thought home-grown people might know our situation better so I'm asking y'all about your experiences first.
Thanks for your tips!
