Seems like tonight will be a nice night to go down to 32F, here near me in Orlando area....
The soil is still quite we from heavy rain a day or so ago...and the wind is slightly blowing...so hopefully it will be less harmful than expected...it should only be freezing for 2-4 hrs approx.
We are lucky in Central and South FL, that our actual freeze temps only last for short durations, and we are much more humid that some parts of CA. Although some parts of CA have been surprisingly warm I've come to find, thanks Nullzero! You changed my outlook about CA freezes and what you guys can grow!
I will keep u guys posted....I leave out certain trees to see what will happen to them!
I have a few mamey sapote trees, about 1 or 2 yrs old, and in 3-7gal pots, on the NW side of my home, unprotected...also have a 10gal aquarium with Red jaboticaba (healthy 6 month old seedling, 8 inch tall and 4inch pot) totally submerged...and also in same aquarium I have a regular Sabara jaboticaba 2 yrs old, just ripped out of the ground bare root, and placed with pot submerged in water, but not the trunk or any higher...just the root system....
I will post pictures of the aftermath if anything unusual occurs.
I generally never water jaboticaba, or let them stay saturated through freezes, so I'm curious to see what happens!
Say prayer for my little test subjects...I hope I don't kill these poor helpless souls! LOL
