Thanks Lynn, maybe I'll do that. I'm exploring various ideas of how to best display them. At the moment they're in a strawberry pot and not doing too well (soil washes away in a bad pattern when it gets watered, not sure how folks use those things, I'm not impressed) Saw a cool display at Disney in the spring where they made a stacked wall of cinder blocks and used the openings for succulents. Might do that, or look for something similar on a smaller scale to try.
We get a few days with snow, occasionally a week or two below freezing. This past winter no snow or freezing, but that was unusual. The winter before we had a week where the snow didn't melt and the kids were out of school the entire week (not good at dealing with snow/ice here).
I'm actually in Whistler at the moment... loving the cool temps and not looking forward to heading home! Hoping to talk the family into a quick trip to Van Dusen Botanical Garden tomorrow on the way home!
