@TinyHouse4Life oh damn so it's the abuse from above that's killing them not the roots being water logged? Good news I guess is a lot of plants seem to recover from surface damage better than root rot.

I don't know if you saw this, but there is a bunch of weirdness with pressure systems causing both hot and cold weather across the country. I am like you in that I am not used to being able to wear a hoodie comfortably in June.
