February General Meeting


Our February General meeting was held on February 8th. Our speaker,Loretta Coussirat gave a wonderful presentation, including a fantastic slide show and movie, teaching us about design, selection and ways to prepare our yards for a freeze as well as how to fix our yards after a freeze. The best way to cover your plants for an freeze is to use a freeze blanket. They allow the sunlight in, yet keep your plants warm. They are available at most of the local stores. She also told us that any plant that is a native plant to the area will come back after a freeze. Our zone is 8B, so we should keep that in mind when purchasing plants. This zone designation indicates the temperatures that the plant can survive in.
