Sorry, Pam......the weather on TV last night said the temp went to 30 at Black Rock School, but that's on the other side of town, & lower in elevation....nothing seems touched here except the coleus....today, cloudy with spotty showers....

Cytf, Are you growing your brugs inside over the winter? A gardening friend sent me a cutting which is my "winter project".... one of them.
Finished my fall planting including bulbs on Sunday :-)
I thought it was supposed to rain all day today.....Sun came out and blue skies!

Thomaston, CT

Probably picked up an inch of rain & it's not over yet!

Staten Island, NY(Zone 6a)

Hi valal, I thought it was brugmansia my friend gave me but it is Datura because she has it growing as a perennial so that why I know it it Datura. I researched it on line and I saw the difference about both plants, I do not think I want brugmansia because you have to bring it indoors in winter. They have the same type of flower but Datura flower upward where as the other flower downwards.

Staten Island, NY(Zone 6a)

So happy I did all my fall gardening because the rain showers are rally give them a soaking , It will be in the low 50 today.

South Hamilton, MA

I am not sure how much rain we had as it is sill raining. The power went out from about 10 min to 11 to 7:30 this morning. I am glad that it was not colder, chilly enough when I moved to different spots of the bed, although the quilt I use did a pretty good job. 50° at the moment.

Natick, MA

Isn't Datura an annual?

(Pam) Warren, CT(Zone 5b)

It is for me.

Staten Island, NY(Zone 6a)

Research states that Datura is a herbecous perennial or an annual but it reseeds and the plants springs up the next year.

Thomaston, CT

Cloudy & showery again this morning....getting depressing....need to see the sun!

No more rain this morning. some rain overnight. 51° gloomy is depressing.

South Hamilton, MA

Salem Cnty, NJ(Zone 7b)

Went camping last night with one of the grandies. The rest of his family came over for a few hours this morning. FUN!! Got up to 68 this aftrnoon. This state park has lots or trails that are paved, cuz they are old roads that have been blocked off. Great for kiddos to ride their bikes in relative safety.

(Pam) Warren, CT(Zone 5b)

Sounds great!

Beautiful day here, just wandered around taking pics and dreaming about future projects. Like I needed more ;-/

Salem Cnty, NJ(Zone 7b)

It's fun to dream though!!!
