When is it safe to bring my indoor plants outdoor. I have a lovely large fern, two large ficus, and other small plants. We can have snow in May!! Puts a damper on Derby activities. LOL.

    Transferring plants outdoors
    Posted by Karen from KY/6 on 2007-04-07 08:18:00

    I decided to have a garden this year after many years. I started my seeds indoors on March 14th and by April 4th, were needing to be planted after our warm weather. I planted my broccoli, brussel sprouts and cabbage outside 2 days before this 18* freeze-of course they are frozen now and I will have to start from scratch. Being from KY also, I thought I would share this with you. When we get those gorgeouse days of warm weather-DON'T DO IT- leave those houseplants indoors until May!
