Some of my gardens look really bare. Like the one by the back door.. I had lots of Annuals in there, with my Hollyhocks.. I hope something comes up.. There wasn't much snow to ruin everything..unless that's the reason.. No insulation.. I had lots of Yarrow in there, and the only Yarrow I see is coming up in one of my planter pots.. Oh well.. I'll give it a couple weeks before I panic..
The Chrysanthiums? are already ten inches high.. Will have to cut those back soon..or they'll be blooming in the summer.. I hope this year is better for the Hydranges.. They did poorly last year..
