Warm-Season Annuals In Container Garden
In early spring, it’s easy to plant too early, especially when you’re fighting spring fever. A few warm days can coax even the most experienced gardener to throw caution to the wind and tuck warm-season annuals, like coleus, begonia and petunia, into containers. Or maybe you decide to get a jump on your tomatoes and slip seedlings into the garden sooner than you should. A sudden cold snap can endanger these early season efforts—but you can protect plants with these easy strategies.
