We are having a long, snowy, cold winter. The temperatures have been far below normal all season--what happened to "global warming"?

The garden flourished last year--the lilies were exceptionally nice! Lost quite a number of perennials including phlox--really surprised me as I have never had phlox winter kill.

The new hydrangeas did very well--Pinky Winky, Little Lamb and Quick Fire were lovely. Endless Summer failed to bloom (first time) but grew well--Hope it will do better this year.

I hope we have an early spring--was so late last year.
