Jack Frost


This morning Jack Frost did a bit of damage in the garden.  The burnt leaves in the picture are from a thriving borage plant.  The borage blue flowers attract bees so I have them growing all over the place.  I watered the ice away and it looks as if the plant may survive.



These lettuces could not be saved so they will be dug into the soil.  Fortunately I have a few other lettuces in more protected areas so all is not lost.  I have to start thinking about coverings for frost tender plants to avoid this kind of loss.
