Frost??

What the?  No frost was in the forecast, but it did get down to the 30s last night and there was a sparkly coating on the grass and on the deck steps this morning.

I had brought the newly planted salvias and the seedlings into the porch, so they were well.

But one of the new sassafras saplings has black, limp leaves.  I think it will be all right, and will put out other new leaves.  The damaged ones were just coming out, not fully opened.  But it is so new, and I have such poor luck getting sassafras going, I just hope this unexpected hard frost did not do it in.

There is now a prediction for 31 degrees tomorrow night.  April.  Sheesh.
