Frosty Morn
Woke up to 27 degrees and a heavy frost. It has turned out to be a pretty sunny day with a high of 45. Except for stepping out briefly to get some photos, I've not been motivated to go out. Text and photos by Phillip Oliver, Dirt Therapy
Beautiful contrast with the dark green around it. The "marginatus" lights up that corner!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beauty is this little plant. It doesn't look any worse for the snowy/icy conditions that your area has been having.
ReplyDeleteWhat else can one wish for? Tough as nails, and so bright and cheery! I have something similar called an Eleagnus 'Gilt Edge'. It serves the same purpose, and it too sailed through our adverse weather conditions.
ReplyDeleteBright spots like this are so nice in the winter, especially when they're provided by tough plants that can take whatever our winters can throw at them.
ReplyDeleteThat's a very pretty Euonymous! I bet all those gold edges really brighten up the spot it's in.
ReplyDeleteOne of my favourite shrubs. It is easy to take cuttings but them, then they grow so slowly for several years, and you almost forget you have them, until one day they are lighting up the garden like a little beacon.
