2). Some of my coleus grown from cuttings from over wintered stock
3). A few marigolds from seed for a mass planting
4). Wood stove that keeps my babies warm. -4 last night and was hard to keep regulated so I think I was out there every 2 hours for most of the night. Notice the 2 pots of water on top of stove to counter act the dryness of wood heat
1). It's not a ghost. It's Keith trying to protect the leaves on his Golden Eclipse Lilac on -4 night. Notice the dusting of new snow as well.
5). Speaking of "invasive " cannas, notice the pots of canna Pretoria on the left. I have been nurturing them in pots since March 28 because they have small tubers and are very slow starting. I also have another variety (name unknown) that were given to me eons ago. They have large tubers and grow very fast so they are just coming up now. They have very showy dark red leaves and an insignificant flower that I cut off. I believe they are probably shown in my album entitled "Challenging Zone 3" if you have checked that out

Edited because the order changed on the pictures when I sent. Frustrating
