Monday night’s hard frost (23 F at the Stanton Airport early this morning) slayed my last standing tomato and damaged most of the plants in my containers. Covering things seemed like too much effort for the 20th of October. That said, a few things continue to bloom, including these Stella d’Oro daylilies. If you look closely at the photo, you can see the transperancy of the petals, caused most likely by frosty nights.

I have never thought frost damage was pretty before I saw your picture.
