    What a brave little plant. I hope it gets some sunshine soon to cheer it up.

    They're hardy little things, but I must admit it looks foolhardy.

    Foolhardy is right! It snow again, about 2 inches, so it is buried again!

    2ofus-Yikes more snow. At least the little plant is safe under the snow from cold weather.
    I have been enjoying our 50 degree weather.:) It started this last Sunday, and has been nice ever since. I better knock on some wood as I know this probably won't last for long. Makes me want to get out and dig in the dirt. We have even had a thunderstorm the other night. Really weird for this time of year.
