On Tuesday afternoon, May 19, people and plants alike are enjoying some much needed sunshine. "Flowers make you feel better about everyday when you see a flower," says Marilyn Sailer, customer at Baldwin Greenhouse. This is especially true after Monday night.
"It definitely keeps us on our toes around here, but Mother Nature rules," says Melanie Werre, Baldwin Greenhouse. After three inches of rain this weekend and record low temperatures Monday night, many garden beds are fighting the frost.
"My bleeding hearts don't look so good," says Cheryl Hicks, Baldwin Greenhouse customer. When there's a frost advisory, you are advised to bring your flowers and plants inside or cover them up.
