There comes a point every winter when I realize I've become too used to seeing snow everywhere. I have forgotten my front yard is naturally green. I have forgotten the many plants that retain their green leaves despite freezing temperatures and the two to three feet of snow that has covered them most of the winter. Three cheers for those brave soldiers!Cheers too for the recent couple of days of warm weather (relatively speaking) and rain which have uncovered vinca, pachysandra, cactus, myrtle spurge,
sempervivum, lamimum and hellebores. Plus, lo and behold, the star of bethlehem plants have started emerging. Could it be the ground hog was completely wrong and spring is actually right around the corner.
