Today's video is all about the exotic plants I lost / killed last winter during the hard frosts and prolonged freezes, the common reasons and explanations and how they can help you choose plants for your tropical style garden, plant them appropriately and be better prepared for any winter protection that may be required. Growing less than fully hardy exotics can always be a gamble during a colder than average winter and I break down care tips ranging from just being aware of the minimum temperatures plants can take and having frost protection ready through to how fleece doesn't always work when wrapping a plant to protect it from frost. As always, feel free to leave your plant successes, garden failures and exotic garden overwintering questions in the comment section. Good luck with all your winter garden preparations this year.
