Hi Sam,

I too am looking and wondering about my plunge bed. We have had some snow cover, but it is here again, gone again. We have had an extreme amount of rain...and when I look at all those pots in my bed I just wince. Some pots are just frozen, some have a bit of ice on them, while others have an inch of frozen water on them.

My bed is sand too, with an added layer of rock on the bottom for drainage....so i know the drainage is good, but??? I will certainly report back, and in the meantime hope all my babies out there are hanging in there:)

Reporting back about survival rate in a plunge bed.
Eventually we had plenty of snow cover and I am pleased to see green pushing through. Incarvillea mariel v. grandiflora did not make it..a dead little stock noted! I was so hoping to see this in bloom ):
