As so many gardeners are staying at home these days, we\u2019ve had more opportunity to enjoy the spring display. And then, perhaps inevitably, \u201cnormal\u201d spring frost and freeze visited. Some plants are vulnerable to damage. The amount of damage will depend on how far along they are in their development.<\/p>\n

Home fruit-growers may have reason to be concerned: At 28 F, you can expect a 10 percent loss of flowers\/young developing fruit. However, at 25 F that loss increases to 90 percent! Much of Indiana dropped to the mid 20s on the mornings of April 15 and 16.<\/p>\n

For home growers, covering plants with sheets or blankets might provide a few degrees of protection.<\/p>\n

Bud counts were good until the freeze, so in some cases, even just 10 percent retained fruit might still be a decent crop on our tree fruits. Grapes may also still have ability to crop on shoots that have yet to emerge. Strawberries are a bit easier to protect through frost and freeze, but only if you took measures, such as using floating row covers, recovering with straw, etc.<\/p>\n

However, it is only mid-April and additional frosts\/freezes are still possible. Bottom line is that unless it is already a complete loss, we won\u2019t really know the rest of the story for quite a few more weeks.<\/p>\n

It is easy to check fruit buds for damage by cutting open the bud and looking for dark brown or black centers.<\/p>\n

For ornamental trees and shrubs, plant response has been quite varied, depending on species, location and, of course, temperature and duration of that temperature. Susceptible plants may have wilted leaves, brown or black necrotic spots on leaves, or perhaps dieback of entire twigs. Plants that were in bloom likely have brown petals or dropped flowers entirely.<\/p>\n
