**Garden Alert: The Ice Man Cometh! ❄️**

Edmonton, we’ve been played again! Mother Nature is bringing winter back for a quick encore tonight with temperatures dipping down to **-3°C**.

If you've already started your garden or picked up some fresh additions from the greenhouse, it’s time for a quick "indoor field trip." Most of your favorites—especially **Dahlias, Begonias, Geraniums, and Fuchsias**—are definitely not fans of the frost.

Tonight's To-Do List:

1. **Bring them in:** Hanging baskets and potted planters should head into the garage or house.
2. **Cover up:** For anything already in the ground, grab some frost blankets or old sheets (avoid plastic touching the leaves!).
3. **Don't forget the veggies:** Cucumbers and tomatoes are sensitive souls—keep them cozy!
Let’s keep those "Fros-cumbers" off the menu and keep your garden thriving. Stay warm, YEG!
