"The freezing weather could lead to problems with newly planted flowers and foliage Wednesday night.\"Sensitive plants, such as hosta (and) Japanese maples, tend to get hit a little worse than others, but most plants will make it through just fine. They've been around for a while and are used\u00A0 to Cincinnati,\" Delhi Nursery representative Kerry Goode said.Goode spent time preparing the hundreds of sensitive vegetation at his nursery in Liberty Township.Temperatures Wednesday night won't be a killing frost for most plants but could damage the tips of flowers and leaves. The dense air will settle into valleys and effect low-lying plants most.Some perennials and flowers, like pansies, are frost-tolerant, but Goode recommended dousing a layer of water on flowers just before daybreak to prevent the sun from burning the spots where frost lingers.Covering plants will also help.\"Use cloth, burlap, old pillowcases, old T-shirts -- anything to keep the frost off. You do not want to use plastic. That will attract more cold than other materials. Old sheets and burlap\u00A0 works just fine,\" Goode said.Forecasters said similar conditions are expected Thursday night."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
