If you haven't looked in your garden lately... You might be surprised.

The recent warm weather has pushed some bulbs to sprout.

Dan Frericks at Frericks Garden Shop in Quincy says you may even see some perenials if they're near a wall that shelters them from the cold.

Frericks says unless the temps get below the mid twenties... Your flowers should be ok.

He suggests covering plants with an old sheet or blanket if needed.

He also recommends not using plastic to cover plants.
