Overwintering Tender Perennials

Join us as we discusses overwintering tender perennials and other plants through the winter months. We will share advice on protecting various plants, such as figs, chrysanthemums, rosemary, and dahlias, from freezing temperatures. We explore different methods such as bringing plants indoors, providing extra mulch or coverings, and utilizing favorable microclimates. We will also touch upon the differences in hardiness between plants grown in the ground versus containers, and the importance of considering factors like soil moisture and drainage. Finally, we discuss the role of experimentation in determining the best approach for overwintering specific plants.
