I filled the GH to the brim today. There is barely any walking room in there now. We'll get the temperature drop on Wednesday. I work Monday and Tuesday til midnight so I have to be ready by the weekend. I still have about 6-10 larger plants that will have to suffer and go into the garage. At least 4 of them are shade-lovers. The others will go to the front of the garage where they can be pulled out for some sunshine. I will cut back the bougainvillea and hopefully they will get a good rest this winter. A looong rest since winter is coming so soon! Ughhh. I hate winter. I hate to worry about my plants!! My GF who is not a gardener whom I gifted a red plumeria asked about wintering it over said it best, "After all this work, I have to let it lose all it's leaves?" sighhh 'Tis the season. Shrug!
