Lora just brought in her flowers to protect them during winter weather. Lora lives in Albuquerque, which is in Zone 6 with the average first frost falling between September 30 and October 30. It's nearing the end of October and there is definitely frost in the morning. You can use a number of different resources to estimate the first frost in your area, including the Farmer's Almanac, The National Gardening Association website, being familiar with the USDA Plant Hardiness Zone Map and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration website. But probably the most important thing you can do is to keep an eye on your local weather report.
