I had 4 gsts eclose since yesterday afternoon, last two eclosed early this morning around 2am. I kept waking up to check on the last 2 that I knew were about to eclose, so I could make sure they were up and hanging and had not fallen. Around 2 am, when i checked, the last two had eclosed, and it appeared they had both just eclosed a few minutes prior to me checking. One of them kept falling, so I unzipped the reptarium and kept helping it back up because when it would fall it would just lay there on floor of reptarium, meanwhile, one of the two that had eclosed that afternoon, was flying all around the reptarium and knocked the one who was having trouble holding on to hang and dry wings, down more than once, but eventually, the newly emerged butterfly, climbed up the side of the reptarium and hung vertically, i tried to coax him up with a stick so he would be hanging upside down rather than vertically, but he would not. So I looked and saw that his wings were not touching anything and were not crumpled so I thought he would be okay if I left him like that, since he refused to move and seemed to be determined to stay in position he was in. This morning when I woke up (and I checked on him all through the rest of the night to make sure he was still up and his wings were not crumpled, and they were not) all of the others were ready to go, but this one was flapping his wings wildly and kept falling or flying side to side, like he could not fly up any higher, i looked closer and the little ""tail" part on one of his wings, was missing and I saw it on the floor of reptarium, he also has what looks like a tear or piece missing on another part of the same wing, like a small "v" shaped piece is missing toward bottom of wing, his wings do not look crumpled or deformed other than those two little pieces, I noticed that when he crawls, the same wing looks like it sometimes bends upwards, this is the left lower wing. I took them all outside this morning around 8, and unzipped the reptarium and the other 3 flew out and were ready to go, the other one, just crawled around but never flew out, so I cut some lantana and put it in the cage with him and put him back inside, thinking maybe he just isn't ready yet. He was still "flying" around the reptarium and sitting still and flapping his wings really fast, so I am hoping he will be able to fly, and maybe he just wasn't ready this morning, I am going to check on him at lunch to see if he wants to be released. I have seen pictures on here of gsts with tattered wings that are still able to fly and this one's wings don't look anywhere near as bad as some of the pics, so surely these two little tears will not prevent him from ever being able to fly!

It looks normal to me. I have a few with the same appearance this week, we had temperatures similar to yours when we hadn't even experienced light frost yet so the hydrangeas were not dormant and had all their foliage still. Not very attractive, and I'm really happy I found time to move the two that were flanking my front door - not a site for deciduous shrubs that made sense to me. That frozen foliage will eventually drop and you can pick it up then. I doubt the brief cold caused damage but with plants so young if you do find they experienced some, just wait until growth begins again in spring and cut back to the first visible buds. There is a long established hydrangea straight out from my kitchen window with blackened foliage. I'm not worried about it, it just isn't pleasing to look at right now.

Well, I thought the pace was too slow, the host talked too much, too much "screen down," "screen up," too much discussing who is going home if such and such happens. I think the game was a little too complicated, and there were way too many commercials. Also, I did not like the banter between the contestants. I'm a big fan of Jeopardy because it is so simple and moves along at a good pace.

RedSun is right, soil temperature is important - you'll want to wait until the soil is 60F. Warm weather plants will just sit there and sulk until the soil warms to their liking. If the tomatoes are becoming pot-bound, them move them up to a larger container where they'll be more comfortable while waiting for the soil to warm up.
