While you're waiting out what is being called the "worthless winter", I'm thinking that's there's still time for real snow. Maybe winter's waiting for my return so I won't miss out.

I'm concerned about the new plantings I did this fall going through the cold without their snow blanket. I predict an interesting and perhaps heartbreaking spring for gardeners.

In the meantime, I'm finding gardening inspiration and ideas in the miniature landscapes of Charleston window boxes as well as the heirloom plants in their historic cemeteries. Click on the links to join me over at The Garden Buzz.
