Hi. I'm new to semps and new to Oregon's winter rains but have fallen head over heals for the cheery bright colors of the hardy semps in the midst of the gray and rainy Oregon winter.
How do I protect them in the rains? The constant rains. I live in Salem which I thought was zone 8b but I see some of you call that 8a. Rain rain rain. Better to stick them under a patio roof or if I have a really well draining soil is it okay to leave them out to fend for themselves in the rains? They are in heavy (really heavy) concrete planters that are on wheeled dollies so I can protect them from the rain under a patio roof if I need to do that.
I've been wondering if people cover them with plastic sheeting....
