Episode Description from the Publisher

Winter may still feel a long way off, but the first frost will arrive before we know it! In this episode of Hort Culture, Alexis, Jessica, and Brett discuss preparing gardens, houseplants, equipment, and supplies for the coming cold weather. From bringing houseplants indoors and protecting tender crops to storing bulbs and tubers, managing hoses and irrigation equipment, and organizing frost-protection supplies, the team shares practical tips to help gardeners get ahead. As always, the conversation combines useful horticulture advice with plenty of stories and humor, reminding us that a little preparation now can prevent a lot of cold-weather panic later.
