We had a very light frost here, too, a few weeks back.
I have to say, I still have my Angel's Trumpet out there, in the ground. It's the last plant in the ground, and I know I need to bring it in, but I just can't bring myself to cut off all the gorgeous flowers it has right now. It's blooming its fool head off.
I already have my cuttings rooted and also have another AT inside the gazebo/greenhouse, so I kinda feel like I can go ahead and squeeze a few more days out of this, in spite of the risk. If I do actually lose it to frost, I'll still have those others. And, Sean's prices were so good, it's not the worst thing to lose this one, I guess.
Did you ever make your cuttings? How are they doing?
