The 'Easter Big Freeze Disaster' we experienced down here this year was a
really freak occurrence - and I hope we never see a repeat performance. Not
at all typical of spring frosts/freezes - even the native oaks, hickories,
mulberries - and even butternuts, which are supposed to be zone 2 hardy -
were severely damaged. We'd had several weeks of unseasonably warm weather in
March - with daytime temps into the 80s the last week or so of March,
followed by 4-5 consecutive nights of temps into the low 20s.
