Notes

Planted two varieties of Rhubarb into large pots. They're just starting to send out shoots with small leaves. Looking forward to lots of yummy rhubarb treats in the future.

Also accidentally brought some seeds, which apparently take 2-3 years before they're productive. :-(

Frost

Experimental · new and might be flaky

Frost is rare here

Frost is rare in this area, so we show no frost dates.

Experimental: this feature is new and might be flaky. These dates are estimates from 25 km weather-model data, not readings from a station at your garden, so a cold spot can be colder. They may be wrong, so check your national weather service and ask local growers before relying on them.
