Sleepy time for dahlias....

It snowed here yesterday. Big. Fluffy. Wet. Snowflakes. They came down in sheets and it was just lovely. We were downtown and I think it really put me in the holiday mood (caramel corn is in the oven as I type!)



Luckily it was AFTER I planted some new plants yesterday morning. I've had some snap dragons blooming for 2 years now so we planted some new ones. It's nice to have the color in winter even if the snap dragons don't know they're 'spose to die. We did bring in two of the hanging fuchsias inside. We’re hopeful that the snow will signal to the dahlia’s “time to hibernate” since they are re-sprouting in they’re pots. Watch they are going to wear themselves out and not do anything this summer. Good thing we can buy more tubers at the Flower and Garden Show. Aaron is working on getting us a guest blog spot there. That will be fun!
