At this point spring will be pretty late arriving this year. I am curious which will survive and what doesn't. And to me, it doesn't matter if I get no blooms on some this year, as long as they survive.
According to the news, we had 99 days in a row of snow cover. That should protect the plants in a normal winter, but our frost line Is much deeper than usual.
Heck, I even lost some dormants last year, when we had good snow cover but more moderate temperatures. It's a fact of life here, and it doesn't help that I like to push the ranges a bit.
I am just anxious for some sun and spring like temperatures......
