After-Blizzard Garden Assessment - Part 2
Updated: Feb 6, 2022
Now that a little over a month has passed, we’re revisiting our list of plants that didn’t have signs of life right away. It’s a good thing we waited awhile to touch anything, because a lot of the plants are bouncing back (and many seem more vibrant than ever). The bur oaks and Mexican plum, which seemed like they were struggling a bit, are now lush and thriving. Nature is resilient. Taking inventory like this will help us be better prepared next time.

















Also bouncing back are:
galangal
agave (one particular variety)
loquat (one survived, one still has not shown signs of life)
oleander
paperwhites
pomegranate
Plants we’re still waiting on:
mexican flame vine
esperanza (update - came back fine)
huisache (update - came back fine)
arizona cypress (was already sad before the freeze)
lantana (update - came back fine)
turmeric (update - came back fine)
citrus (update - came back fine)
hibiscus
lemongrass (update - came back fine)
