0:00 Welcome to the Best of Oklahoma Gardening!

1:10 Freeze Damage on Plants We discuss an epic freeze that happened here in Oklahoma and talk about how the cold damage affects shrubs, woody, and non-native plants. Be sure to check out this fact sheet for more helpful information: Winter Protection for Landscape Plants HLA-6404 https://extension.okstate.edu/fact-sheets/winter-protection-for-landscape-plants.html

10:50 Winter Damage Clean-up We had a deep freeze this past winter so Host Casey Hentges walks through the garden and evaluates our damaged plants to see which ones should stay and which ones should be replaced. Use these tips to see which plants you should keep at home.

16:40 Lamb's Ear Pruning We prune back some Stachys byzantina 'Helene Von Stein' Lamb's Ear to get our keyhole garden ready for the upcoming spring.

20:18 Tree Freeze Damage Mark Bays, Urban and Community Forestry Coordinator, joins us to look back at the challenges our trees have endured from last year's brutal freeze and what we can do now to help improve their quality.
