    Good Wednesday morning Jami and fur babies. I honestly don't know how you do it. Your so super busy all the time. In the yrs you've become a farm lady from city girl and the knowledge you have learned to take care of the babies and foliage is nothing short of amazing. Everything you describe I understand. My 👒 off to you. Hope you have an awesome day 😎 ❤❤.

    I wanted a low maintenance / dog proof water feature for my yard forever until I finally dug a hole deep enough to hold a feed bucket. I lined it with pond liner. Cut a hole in the side of the bucket near the bottom, set it in the hole and filled it with water. I used an old grill rack over the opening and got a fountain with a long neck that fit between the slats and put decorative rocks on top of the grill rack. I could of left it like that looking like a natural spring but I added a birdbath with a spinning rock because I’m extra like that😂

    Jami you are such a treat to watch. I love how you talk about and treat everyone and everything. You care so much about what and who you love, right down to the plants. The animals and people in your life flourish because of who you you are. I know, bejng someone who is extremely protective of my two beloved horses that if someone like you were to help me care for them I would allow it in a heartbeat.i do it all myself when it comes to my boys. I don't trust a lot of people with them as they are my whole world. So I guess that's saying a lot with the kind of person you are.Thank you for loving your babies like you do. It is so heartlifting to see such kindness in this world. Bless you and yours and have a fantastic day.

    My mom planted a Fig tree created by TX A&M called Alma Fig. It’s a Closed Eye Fig that never needs pruning and I’ve never had to protect it from the freeze. God helped you with all of the Rain. The plants/trees will absorb the water, which will help some plants from having all of the moisture pulled from them by the freeze, which is what normally kills them. My mother always deep watered, if there wasn’t rain, prior to a freeze. I remember her spraying the limbs of trees with water, but don’t know if it was for protecting them or just to create icicles for us to play with 😂. That being said, I am a couple hundred miles South of you, in the Texas Gulf Coast, Coastal Bend.

    • @joycebrewer4150

      😊 Coating twigs and limbs with ice actually protects tender growth from deeper freezes. Apple orchard owners up north have misters to set between trees for this reason. It is insurance for the coming summer crop.

    Jami, we lived in New York. My father every fall would wrap our fig tree in blankets then cover the blankets and lastly with waterproof roofing paper type stuff. Then cover the top with a bucket. Every spring he unwrapped it and that tree produced tons of wonderful figs. I tell you this in hope that it helps your fig tree babies survive the Texas cold. Our tree was 6-8 foot tall. The brances would straighten out about 2 weeks after he unwrapped them. He would tightly wrap the branches around the tree. Next came blankets, then roofing paper and lastly the bucket on top. You much wait until most of the leaves have fallen. I hope this helps.

    Jami get some burlap to cover those cold sensitive trees and other plants like roses. If you were to plant Pansies or other cold hardy plants in your Green Stalks you can cover those as well with old sheets or blankets. Just move them under the porch or into the shop. You are better off with the wind blowing than not it keeps the air moving and warmer with less chance of plants freezing.

I highly recommend that you stay away from it!!! It was full of nails and when you stepped on it, your feet turned red from the dye. It was just a mess in every sense. After that, it’s always pine bark or cedar. 😘😘❤

    Also, I did the dump truck load of mulch this past summer. It was SO much work. The bags are actually easier to move around to the different spots you need them and just dump them out. With the truck load pile, i had to shovel it into the wagon/wheelbarrow, move it to the different beds, and dump / shovel it again. With the bags it’s easier to dump in amongst the shrubs and flowers - but a pain in the butt with a shovel.

That’s not only hard on your plants, but it’s hard on the animals.. we had 7° the other morning when I woke up had to get the dog out it took three tries before she did her duties. She keep picking up her paws and then running to the door, picking up her paws and running to the door.🥰❤️

    Black mulch I found it kills my plants because it holds the heat and burns up your plants in the summer.

    Luckily the UK is pretty mild for this time of year. Really hope yours turns out to be nowhere as bad as you all expect ❤
