Hey Frank, you planted outdoors this year in late April? I live in MKE WI - prolly same zone or more (Z5 here) & we had a frost warning night of May 28. Unusual here for that time. I already planted a nanna tree inground a week before & wrapped it up good that night. The leaves died & it looked dead, but it grew new leaves & did well all summer.
Did your trees suffer or did you protect them?
How did yours do that night?? I just happened to write that day on my calendar. May 28 is very late for frost here...I usually have my garden planted by late April.
Hey, Kent & Howard, you guys are just too funny! Yes, I caught that too! LOL
