DID YOU SEE SNOW & ICE LAST WEEK?
We did in College Station, Texas!

Despite the bitter cold, some parts of our parsley were still protected against the cold. Can you guess why one part of the parsley is alive and well? Scroll to the bottom of the email to find out if you're right!

Answer: The snow acted as a blanket for the parsley that is still green, whereas the white roots got exposed to the freezing cold temps and ice. We will see how the plant fares the rest of the season!
