newly purchased shrubs

16 years ago

bought a lot of shrubs and 3- 9 foot trees in Atlanta last week and they are all suitable for our zone. Since it's gone down to 10 degrees last nite, I was wondering if we're in trouble. They are up against our porch with their root balls covered by mulch. Should we send them down to our heated basement ASAP?
