Global Warming helps my Southern Blues up North!

With another warm December up here in Z5 I have to leave my 2 containered SHB blueberry bushes outside. Heck, our unheated garage is still in the mid 50's in the coldest spot. Lots of days and nights still above freezing outside. Weird! I'm sure winter will arrive for a few weeks at some point, but this winter is sure lookin' alot like last winter. WARM!!!

No doubt about it! Ive plants that shouldn't have fall flowers and they do. All buds are swelling! Looks like mid Jan full bloom for me this year. Good thing most of my SHB are in pots;) I've even got buds pushing on some low chill Rabbiteyes!!!
