I think maybe Surely this wayward saint immigrated to Canada because we had frost last night (20th) & he's probably the reason we never plant annuals until after the 24th of May, Queen Victoria's birthday.Patio Postcardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04491809927236242223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4787951981229151015.post-59462082243952641602019-05-21T01:17:06.548+01:002019-05-21T01:17:06.548+01:00We always feel safe planting our tomatoes, peppers...We always feel safe planting our tomatoes, peppers, and annual flowers at the end of May, but three years ago we had a frost at the beginning of June.

I wonder why he's still a "saint" after all that! But anyway, it's an interesting tale about frost in May. As for my part of the world, if there is ever a frost, it's a newsworthy event! Southern California doesn't see those very often. However, we are enjoying some unusual May rain . . . it's usually very dry this time of year. So we are very pleased to see the extra moisture.Sara at Come Away With Mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07677354270954094291noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4787951981229151015.post-36607349262825765832019-05-20T22:54:46.981+01:002019-05-20T22:54:46.981+01:00I just finished planting and then looked at the fo...I just finished planting and then looked at the forecast for tonight.
