Desoto County Extension Office - Protecting Plants from Cold Temperatures

Have you been outside this afternoon? The temperatures are DROPPING drastically from what we've been experiencing Are you ready?!?! Act now if you want to protect plants! 

"A plant’s ability to withstand cold temperatures depends on plant species, and how low and how fast temperatures decrease. When temperatures gradually decrease, a plant can acclimate, or adjust itself, to withstand colder temperatures better. Sudden decreases in temperature cause more damage in fall or early winter than similar low temperatures well into winter."
