That's a huge drawback. Send the snow this way.

If I had that carex I wouldn't have to do anything to it the rabbits would eat it to the ground each winter as they do the liropes in my garden. They even eat yuccas. They are a nuisance!

Your garden looks splendid, especially in light of those wide temperature swings. I love that blue spruce.

My hellebore is now blooming, my daffodil buds are getting bigger (afraid I might lose them to cold temps before they bloom), and my hyacinths are coming up like yours also. If we weren't so far apart, I'd swear that mockingbird was coming back & forth between our homes, lol! Very late winter, almost each year without a miss, the mockingbird will go to the highest point on our magnolia (just over the second story & gutter line), and start waking me up as early as 3:30 in the mornings! The good news? I know spring is soon around the corner. <br />I so enjoy your garden tours. Thank you!Rita C at Panoplyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17351306074493103021noreply@blogger.com
