Rescuing the plants from the cold

Before we were able to get our plants in the ground, we had a couple of nights where it dipped below 40 degrees. We brought ALL the plants in, the trees and bushes included. I have never seen a blueberry bush look so pretty with its cute little white flower clusters.


Or our peach and apple trees, which have beautiful pink buds that transition into a white blossom. 


Or the fact that we started already getting baby beans growing on the bean plants. We were so excited to see the small pods on there. These little guys are the main reason we wanted to get our plants finally in the ground. They needed their trellis. Once the bean pods start growing, they are pretty heavy, so they weigh the vines down.


Most of our plants survived the transition of being brought in from the cold. Our carrots didn't look TOO swell, but we salvaged as many as we could. Some of the strawberries were victims to some very curious felines that live in the house.
