 Who are these plants doing so well with such wild weather? Is the wild weather responsible for the plants doing well? Well, not this year. The wild weather from one year to the next could be the culprit, but we didn't have any wild weather. The temperatures were fairly even over the course of the spring. We had a nice kind of mild winter. We had good rain both in the fall and the winter and the spring, and that's a trifecta to create exactly what we're all enjoying now.
