Wow Pam and Ginger,

Yikes,Eeeeek,Wow!

The pictures are inclusively;.... amazing, beautiful, sad, sadly beautiful to a Florida gardener, and have to admit;...I would be devastated if that happened here this late in Winter.

The first year I moved back to Florida 6 years ago in an April, I planted a lot. That year 2008, everything I planted including 3ea. 12' tall Foxtail Palms, not to mention two large moving vans of mature plants from our courtyard garden in New Orleans that were extra special. We had several days of the low 20's here that year and spread out;... 80's one week and low 20's the next several times back to back and when Winter was finished it looked like a blow torch went through the new gardens. That was an eye opening experience indeed.

I sympathize with you hugely in spirit. Things will rebound. Smiling I tip my hat to you.
