Hello...
Seems I've been neglecting this blog lately.
It's already the middle of February!
Time to join in with
Pam at Digging,
for
Foliage Follow-Up.
Gold Dust Acuba
It was warm and overcast yesterday. I got out and did some trimming.
I should have taken my photos then. It's 30 degrees colder today.
Japanese Aralia
We're due for some freezing weather the next few days.
It just can't make up it's mind.
Japanese Holly Fern
It's been an interesting winter.
Asparagus Fern
Even though we've had lows in the low 20s a couple times this winter,
there are things that haven't gotten frozen back like usual.
Ruellia brittoniana
The Ruellia, for instance. Very strange.
Purple Heart
And, things already peeking their heads out.
Plumbago auriculata
Canna lily
That makes me nervous. Too early could mean things bitten back, and not recovering.
Dusty Miller
Feverfew
Softleaf Yucca
Some things just never seem bothered.
Guess I should try to protect some things this week, though.
One good thing...we've had more rain this winter.
I took these photos of the creek a couple weeks ago.
It's not flowing as much now. We could use some more rain.
But, it is flowing. I love to hear that sound.
This water helps the wildlife. The frogs are enjoying it.
They sing their songs for us to enjoy, as we sit on the porch....weather permitting.
So, that's what's happening in the garden here.
Be sure to visit Pam, for more February foliage.
Happy Gardening...
