Gotta crawl out from under electric blanket and start day

57 in home

Will be great with warm clothes on

Tonight hard freeze. Only have a few plants to cover up. Couple hosta and couple banana plants. Not sure if I should use cardboard boxes or straw or cloth

Whatever works to put a barrier between the plant and the cold night air!

I have things in the unheated greenhouse right now. Daytime temps in there are 70 degrees + but I cover things up at night with seed cover trays and towels. Will be doing that for a while until nighttime temps are consistently above freezing.
