Wow -- what motivated you to take such an exciting chance? I would dearly love to get my bougainvilleas, ferns and plumeria out of the green house since by all indications "Spring" is bustin' all over! Even the turtles have come out of hibernation. Temps in the 80s are predicted for the next 10 days which takes us right up to March. Dang, I'm tempted! Could winter have been concentrated in those two cold days and that's gonna' be it?

I'm missing something. What kid? What little guys have been out there for months?

Oh okay ... I get 'the Kid'. Yeah, where are they when you need them?

I'm thinkin' -- I'm thinkin' ... ! I might start repotting the bougies which is scheduled for this year. And besides I've already been accused of living dangerously when I teeter totter on tall ladders and walk around on drain boards ... lol

All the warm weather motivated me too. I probably would have done it sooner but I was not feeling well. Also those epis in were in a room that gets some lights on at night and I want them in a natural light/dark situation. I can roll them close to the house for a light freeze. They are not far.

I too was motivated by the warm weather! I moved everything out of the house and garage plant room on Sat. More than 100 potted plants.

I took out the plants that I have overwintered in the house and put them all on my back porch. They are fine out there as long as there is no hard freeze. I have raked away all of the fallen leaves protecting the in-ground plants and have almost finished all of the pruning. I know there is a good chance of another freeze or two, but if I don't get my spring cleaning done in the garden beds I may get caught with a very messy spring flush. Yes, I am living dangerously, lol.

I'm joining the garden "living dangerously" club. I've moved the potted plumerias to the outside and one fern so far. I had to in order to get to the bougainvilleas I want to repot.

Living dangerously is so exciting ... lol

Wish us risk takers luck! ... :-)

I need to buy some tomatoes and get them in. I planted some nasturtiums in. They really hate a freeze.

I bought tomato and yellow squash a couple days ago.

It seems that I can't stop prepping for spring....Mother Nature started it all! I was trimming the dead branches off of my lemon tree. It had sustained a real set back with our 18deg temps in January and I was very leery of pruning too early, so I waited until yesterday. Well, it appears I was a little late with the pruning, as the tree already has bloom buds on it.

Moved all hanging baskets out last w/end. Moving plumies tomorrow saturday

I'm going to check the 10 day tomorrow and move them out if there are no freezes predicted. Moved them all out this early last year too and won.

Brrr, down to 38 this morning and glad that I procrastinated.

I am going for tomatoes today and I will put black pots over them on the few cold nights. I only see low 40's here in the forecast.
