The year before last I had gotten a ground orchid in the fall, I heard that it was hardy so I potted it up and left it outside and do you know it died the first time we got a freeze? I thought maybe it went dormant but it never did come back. I got two more from a friend so I took these into the garage. Our local station said it would get down to 30° and I was panicking, then I looked at the Weather.com and they say it is only getting down to 37° so I do feel a little better now, but I brought in the tulips because they have buds on them. I moved all the daylilies under the porch, they are already soaked, my Hostas do not mind they look gorgeous and I brought the two bigger ones into the garage as well. It was so cold and windy and wet, my hands were like ice when I came in. LOL.
Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin: And yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. Mat.6:28-29
