I'll bet the daylilies are all napping under the snow. I'm so looking forward to seeing your garden next summer!

It's beautiful but lonely looking. I know that you can't wait for it to spring to life!

I think one of the things I enjoy about gardening is the company of the plant life...sounds strange, doesn't it. But while it is solitude, I am never lonely with so much life around me.
winter is a lonely time in the yard, so barren, unkept...the bird's chatters are a reminder that there is life...
Oh, I'm getting too sentimental. Solar deprivation. How can anything live in 5 degree weather?

Your greenhouse COULD look kind of forlorn, but with the tracks in the snow leading out to it, it looks rather inviting! Nice shot.

Beatiful photo.
Lotsadirt- I know how you feel. I use to dread winter until I met an arborist who inspired me to learn how to id. a tree from it's branching habit, bark and buds. It took me a while and lot's of books and many walks. but now I can tell the different trees apart, I have "company" in the winter too.

Oh, that last shot's really great! How nice to have that tropical retreat in the dead of winter. It's going to get down to 7 tonight (a heat wave to you, no doubt).

Here is some more of that white stuff for Lisa. Really folks, there is a flower bed under that drift next to the fence. Beside the house I have a strip about 3 ft wide under heavy cardboard, waiting for spring and plants to replace the quack grass.
