MY PLANTS HAVE SURE TAKEN A BEATING THIS YEAR

It has been really hard on my plants with these extreme swings in temperatures that we have had this year.  Poor Dan, has had to put them in and out of the shed a few times, with threats of frost. 


We actually only got frost once, but these are tropical type plants and they don't take kindly to this cold weather even if it doesn't freeze.  So I keep on having to trim the browned edges off of them. 
 



 
 
 

 
 
I think I am going to look for artificial plants for my patio for next year.  That is, if I can find some realistic looking ones.  Then I wont have to replace them each year, but for now I will trim and spruce these ones up as best I can for the rest of this year. 
 




THIS IS NOW ONE OF THE THINGS I DON'T LIKE ABOUT TEXAS
