Have you ever wondered how outdoor plants survive our harsh winters?
Sub zero temperatures,snow and freezing rain? Trees and shrubs are quite adaptable in the winter simply because they create a fluid like substance that is drawn upward into the plants main base and stems. Some plants make natural antifreeze to cope with winters wrath.
Annuals shut down in the winter due to cold hardiness.Perennials can survive the winter mostly because they concentrate on the root system of the plant and not above the soil surface.
So the next time you walk by a tree or shrub, just be glad your not stuck in the ground.
