My 'Edith Bogue' Southern Magnolia and Needle Palm got covered in an (unexpected) ice storm the other day. The NWS was predicting 1"-3" of snow with some sleet possible. In the middle of the storm at 1 in the morning the NWS changed the Winter Weather Advisory to an Ice Storm Warning. I was shocked when I saw the ice. Ice storms are not uncommon, but in the middle of November in Indiana is unheard of. It was very "cool" to see it on my cold hardy tropicals though! We got 0.25" of ice and no snow.
Tropical life in Indiana! Cowabunga dudes! 🌴❄️
