Escambia,

I don't have any real experience with the idea of watering to prevent freeze damage but a couple of years ago, we had a freeze on May 2nd and the sprinklers ran on some plants and not others. The ones that got watered seemed to have less damage than those that didn't get it. Aesculus parviflora didn't seem to mind the weather a bit with an icy coating.

Regards,
Ernie
