The 2024 Garden Year

January 19, 2024 January Our year started with snow, ice and frigid temperatures in mid-January. Our temperatures stayed below freezing for almost a week. I think it was the most consistent cold that we've experienced since moving here. Fortunately, it was a dry snow so there wasn't too much damage. Once again, we almost lost the azara and I'm afraid there would have been some breakage if I had not kept knocking the ice off. February 14, 2024 February In past years, it seems that inclement weather seems to hit around Michael's birthday in mid-February. After the January snow and ice, this month was actually quite tame. Nothing exciting to report - mostly birdwatching . Early flowers like hellebores, cyclamen and crocus begin to bloom in mid month. March 3, 2024 March I got into a walking routine which I'm happy to report I am continuing this year. You get to the point where you feel guilty if you miss a day. I do miss days occasionally but I'm learning that ...

It won't be long now...

It has been so cold and dreary lately and Spring is like a distant memory. Our patience should be rewarded in just three or four weeks with scenes like the following (fingers crossed) -

  1. Nice video clip, Phillip! Lately I have been trying to jazz up my blog with a few videos also. Let us all THINK SPRING and cross our fingers no rogue, late bitter hard freeze will hit later this month just as things start budding out! Best regards, Jon in Vicksburg, MS on 2-1-08

  2. Really cool time lapse photography! I wanted to try that but never found the time to hang around long enough to snap pictures every few minutes. ;) Spring's just around the corner.

  3. Hang on Phillip ! You've got a real bad case of Spring fever that is sure to be cured soon. I'm next door down in Tampa getting the cure ( sunshine ) for my winter blues .

    Chicago is under a foot of snow.
