“Don’t pull any plants out until they’re proven dead”, that’s such a golden advice! And love it when Layne tried to describe the wimpy plants. All the black & green😂
Love this video. Luckily I am seeing this BEFORE planting my transplants for cool flowers. First year to do this. Home gardner so I need all the help I can get! You two are great! Thanks so much!
Middle Tennessee was snowed in last week. We had temps down to -2. I covered my little plants and was tickled to find them mostly intact when I removed the protective cover.
Oh, yay! So happy to hear that 😊 What a pleasant surprise it must have been to peek under your row covers and see your little plants thriving! Thanks so much for watching, and have a lovely day 💚🤗💚
Thank you for the video and the lovely story about nigella and snapdragons growing together! I can so good imagine how that happens and I am glad that such things don't just happen to me (even happened to you, the real queen of cool flowers). So I'm not feeling so allone with my failures ;) I wish you a happy late winter/spring and best conditions for the upcoming gardening/farming season. 🤗🌻
Appreciate the video! In Zone 8B Pacifc NW. My snapdragons are 6-8" tall but have flopped over. I'm wondering if I should pinch them back. Any thoughts?
What if plants are still green but they're limp? I'm in Zone 8, normally mildish winter and I was 1 week into hardening off some plants in a clear Tupperware container outside when a cold snap hit into the teens. If I had it to do over I think I would have tried to plant them before the storm hit, but I ended up trying to move the container to a more sheltered area and the bottoms of their potting mixes inside got all frozen 😢. So the bottoms of their roots all died I guess. It's like native bunch grasses and clover so I think maybe they'll bounce back. But if I would have planted them the roots would not have been so badly damaged, and it would have been better to have just let them get snowed on.

my first frost was 6 weeks late this year! Hopefully my poor plants will be ok but I already plan for early spring planting.
Cool flowers are surprisingly tough, so fingers crossed that all is well ☺️ Thanks so much for watching, and have a wonderful day! 💚🤗💚

I'm in the redwoods. I have heard conflicting information. Are Redwood needles toxic to seedlings if they get mixed into your beds?
I have heard a lot of people say that for conifer needles in general they're safe to use as a mulch on top, just don't mix them into the soil. 🤷
