Once again I was out early enjoying another fosty morning! Stachyurus salicifolia,which I think I planted in late winter Last year, with the finest crysal edging |
Acicia dealbata with the nodding heads of Eurphobia |
This frosty week has prompted me to take a look back at previous Januarys ...this was taken on this very day last year! |
And this was that winter of 2008 , I remember it well ... new to the PNW and to gardening , I had no experience with Hardiness, half hardiness , zones denial .... I must have lost every South african and South American native that I innocently planted in my exposed garden that year. And have I learned from that winter ,or was it two winters? NO .....
OMG...I remember that snowstorm so well...it was kind of amazing...the first time I've really seen it snow here in PDX!
