I'd give it a go, arkess7! It got down to 32°F here, this
morning, and, we have turnip greens planted, but, that's
just supposed to make them GOOD! :wink:

You should be good there to plant!

I love all of your gardens. It's getting cold here and these are some of the last views of mine.

I wish I can say I grew her from a baby but... :lol:

She's at least 20' tall. We do have a small one growing by the side of the fence nearby. I'd love to see that one in our front yard someday!

I think NJ has some of the largest Holly trees around.

Nice pictures. It is funny to see some your plants, and how small they stay up there. Like the Oleanander, those things grow to almost tree size here. LOL. Also the Jasmine tree, how cute. Do those 2 things freeze up there? Do you have to take them in, or cover them? I absoultley love the shade gardens, and your little light house area. Very nice. Looks like you have a big area to do alot. I have no room to do the things I would love to do. You have done a great job.

My Oleander, Brugmansia and Jasmine have to be cut back and put into my garage. I water them about once a month and bring them out again in the Spring. I'd love to live where I could work in my gardens all year long. Of course I'd be bankrupt from buying plants!!!!!!!!!

My mama had the same eggplants which were five feet tall growing for three years. It just kept giving and giving and giving and with no freezes the last few years it never lost a leaf. The same with the tomatos.
