Winter garden

My blog, just like my garden, is not getting much attention right now. But a recent post made me come back to say a few words.

My late bloomer, such as Angel Trumpet and Obedient Plant, were great right up until the middle of November. We had a hard frost right before Thanksgiving, which made everything die or go dormant.

I did get a number of perennials planted this fall, and added a few bulbs.

Pansies are doing fairly well. My daphine bushes have buds, although one is looking very sad. I fertilized it this week. I also have one pink camellia blooming. I have two reds that bloom later, and both have blooms.

I have asked for two truck loads of mulch for Christmas! My husband laughed.
