While I had my L.L.Bean boots on to fill the bird feeder (I bought them when they were criticized for being pro-Am.)I checked on my flowers also. All the roses have made it through the winter. I've stopped buying the Knock-Out ones and I'm having more success.
And my husbands Forsythia bush(he planted it..its the only thing he's ever planted..lol) its full of buds to open. It sits outside his TV room window. Next to it is a lilac bush given to me by a friend in Elizabeth IN. It's from a very old bush of hers. I always look so forward to Spring and its my scariest time of the year health wise.
