All the lilies came in and most of them were sprouting already but they were travelling here in hot warm temps........
well most of them are potted now in 12 inch wide pots but 10 inches deep............
and under about 5 inches of soil but the martagon
just wandering if a frost blanket or blanket will be enough to hold these lilies tonight
-6C and clear and cold or 21F
tomorrow is going to be much better with the temps not near as cold but still pretty cool
I have not got the room to put all these pots anywhere for the night.......
huge amount of pots out there....
wander if I put on a fleece blanket on top of the frost blanket if all will be ok for the night??
this thaw and freeze is a pain here at this time of the year
and this will NOT by any means be the last frost of the spring either........

The big bed is not near ready yet to put these all in right now
need a suggestion

thanks

and if this does not work for some crazy reason but think this should.......how do I know how the lilies are doing underground.
it is mostly the sprout at the top of the lily they are worried about in frost
the blankets are hanging down the sides of the pots too.....
