Frost


Posted by Clint Roth , Feb 23,2007,22:39       Forum

I live in the Phoenix Arizona area and we experienced a killing frost for a number of nights this winter. Some of my trees and shrubs seem to have survived with some new growth showing around their base, but have alot of dead limbs and foliage on their extremitites. When is the appropriate time of year to trim the dead parts of the plants back?

Thanks.
