Sommer Gardens / Thursday, December 31, 2009 / Categories: Weather Frosted Brugmansia Yesterday morning it dropped down to 34, cold enough to generate some scattered frost amongst my Angel Trumpet seedlings. This sort of caught me off guard because I did not see any frost warnings in the forecast. I could have easily scheduled the overhead sprinkles to come on in the wee hours of the morning, protecting my plants from frost.The damage was only to the upper most, tender growth. I did not see any damage to the stems or to the more than 100 seed pods currently developing on the plants. I have been looking at installing a personal weather station out by my brugs and this close call will push that up my priority list for the start of the new year. This will allow me to better monitor the temperature and dew point when cold weather moves in.
