I have lived in Nashville for over 20 years and I can't recall such a consistently snowy winter. I recall a lot of January months with sheets of ice on the road, but not these weekly blankets of dusty white stuff.
I rather like it! The garden is lovely in snow, no matter what it looked like before! It's pretty tough to do work in, between the snows though. Too mushy, never mind the cold.
The hellebores are just now pushing up new flowers. Last February 5th, I had almost open blooms; today...just a hint.
I noticed a LOT of robins this past week.....I also noticed the plague of hackberry seeds all over my driveway, my car, getting tracked into the house. Wonder if the robins are here for the hackberry seeds.
We know what comes next.
This winter's gardening accomplishments...
