I have covered up the citrus trees and sage against the predicted frost overnight. They are already struggling a bit after a few lighter frosts this year, hopefully this will keep them going. I gave them an encouraging pep talk to try to keep their spirits up until spring gets here too. I'm not sure they believed me.
