We can't say what frost it met

The usual last frost that year was 29 Aug, and frost has come as late as 1 Oct. We have no finish date for this blueberry planting, so we can't say what it went through. The blueberry planting went in on 26 May, 95 days before the usual last frost (29 Aug).

Experimental: this feature is new and might be flaky. These dates are estimates from 25 km weather-model data, not readings from a station at your garden, so a cold spot can be colder. They may be wrong, so check your national weather service and ask local growers before relying on them.
