This is the most dangerous for your vulnerable plants. - Soft freeze: Is not a real thing. - Cover the plant with a bucket. - Cover vulnerable plants with a sheet or blanket but make sure the plant is not smashed. - Place bucket over the plant and put mulch and/rock around the bottom. - Make sure your plants are well watered. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Buzz Words From this Episode: Weeds: a plant that is not valued where it is growing and is usually of vigorous growth. Mulch: material (such as decaying leaves, bark, or compost) spread around or over a plant to enrich or insulate the soil. Frost: a deposit of small white ice crystals formed on the ground or other surfaces when the temperature falls below freezing. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Plants Mentioned in this Episode: - Creeping Charlie - (Pilea Nummulariifolia) - Dandelions - Hosta - (Plantain lilies) - Roses - Tulips  - Spiderwort - Mican Philodendron - Lipstick Black Pagoda - Lemon Button Fern ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Products Discussed in this Episode: - Dieowa Podcast - www.die-owa.com. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sources: Farmers Almanac https://www.thespruce.com/what-the-difference-between-a-frost-and-a-freeze-1403074
