Above and Below the Ice

Early this morning, under a clear sky with calm winds, the temperature slipped below freezing for an hour or two, foreshadowing the close to this year's growing season. In anticipation, tender plants such as the oxalis and Christmas cactus were moved into the relative shelter of the garage. Hardier perennials such as the herbs were allowed to weather the cold unsheltered.
