No winter annuals for me. We do get some winter weather and occasionally small amounts of snow. Any time I spend outdoors in the winter is to photograph my semps (since they aren't covered in snow) and even do some weeding. Yes we do have weeds growing in the winter. Some times I wish it would just get cold and stay that way for the winter, instead of the up in the 30's, down to the 20's or teens and them up again. : ( The weeds love that.
I do have Hellebore that bloom the end of winter or early spring. That's blooms soon enough for me. Besides it makes the forsythia and other early blooming plants that much more special when they come along.
