okay, last post, I promise! :-o

1) My Mahonia 'Soft Caress' seems to be doing well, although it's been a slow grower, and may not be getting quite enough sun where it is (pretty much full shade). Might have had more blooms with some morning sun...
2) My holly tree is fruiting nicely!
3) Fall crocuses are continuing to open! There are seven more sprouts (hard to see in the photo) which I hope will bloom soon. I'm hoping for 10 blooms for 10 bulbs planted--we'll see! At least they've all sprouted.
4) I like my Skimmia--some nice fruit and buds ready for the spring. It's a male/female Skimmia combo I found--nice to have them together in one plant.
