Yep, due to a cold snap, I have frost damage in Santa Fe to newly planted vegetable garden; 4 (2 1/2 feet high with tomatoes!) of 7 tomatoes and 1 (also 18 inches high with itty-bitty peppers!) of 3 bell peppers. I cut the plants back, all of the wilted/frozen parts, close to the grown level, and one tomato and one pepper seem to be adding new leaves! YAY. Roses had a few tips burned but are doing well; strawberries too. I had covered them too, to no avail.Newly planted perennials (covered) are blooming away! Whew!!
