Hi All-

I live in NY and have been cleaning up everything today as the weather was BEAUTIFUL!! 65! I will take it! Tomorrow and Monday its suppose to get into the 70s. About a week ago I was really worried that I lost 3 plants, well today, upon further/closer inspection, I moved back a lot of the dead leaves from last year and they MADE IT! Green shoots sticking up. There was one lily that my uncle gave me last year, and I thought that was dead, NOPE, tons of new growth!

There are two that I am crossing my fingers will still live, but I was REALLY surprised and excited to see they made it! The one I am not sure about yet is Jungle Island. I bought that last year from Spunky1 and it was HUGE by the end of the summer. I am hoping it pulled through and with the warmer temps for the next two days I am hoping to see new growth.

Needless to say, I was surprised IN A GOOD WAY today! Now, I have to fix my vegetable seeds that I killed as I tried to create a mini-greenhouse for them, didn't realize it was super moist, and yes, I probably drowned them! I am going to give them a few more days to dry out and see if anything happens, then out to the compost pile they will go! LIVE AND LEARN!

Regards, Josh
