cold weather
@compostablespork @eldang the range shift might have happened regardless tbf—so many plants & animals are having the southern sides of their ranges curtailed by climate change right now
we’ve pretty much given up on trying to plant things where we’re at the very southern edge of the native range bc we just don’t get the frosts they expect anymore, while p much every plant where we’re on the alleged northern edge is doing leagues better than it should
