Since it is cold outside, you can prune your plants without causing damage or encouraging new growth. You could prune blue holly and Christmas trees and create a Christmas wreath. Poinsettia plants shouldn’t be brought outside in the cold weather to transport without being covered; when bringing them home, set them in water for an hour, drain, then place in a cool room, this can be done with amaryllis plants too. You can enjoy cutting your own Christmas tree, just be sure to keep it hydrated.
Key Takeaways:
- Many people do not do the research required that would allow them to have their garden flourishing in the cold weather.
- There are a lot of people out there that have gardens in the cold weather and they still function great.
- Preparation is always the key when it comes to making sure you are getting the most out of your garden.
