That's a relief; I hope this is the last weekly polar plunge for the desert SW, especially with frost chances. We hogged the cold...26F low at my house!
<28F for a couple hours, my flowering penstemons, salvias now limp (sorry hummers), but may recover. Mesquites green buds seemed to recoil to shrink from cold, so fine. Late and unwelcome!
I have lived in the Christmas Mountains since 1976, and started my oasis in 1996. For visiting instructions contact me at christmasmountainsoasis@gmail.com

Sorry you got zapped. We had already lost all our fruit in Alpine before this last episode.
