    Almost 65* and a misty rain, and these guys are loving it. Will have to cover foxtail by end of the week.

    Really nice to see. I cannot wait until spring blooms will go on sale here. My flower boxes are ready and waiting.

    Those colours are lovely to see...and that fern looks soooo healthy.

    I agree with Sjeord - I can hardly wait until spring to see flowers again. Seeing your fern, polyanthus and pansies makes the wait a little less tedious though.

    I really like the foxtail container.
    I have some in the ground on the south side of the house. I guess because it's protected from the north winds, it doesn't mind our winter weather.

    Cheryl, this foxtail froze right to the ground last winter, but came back nicely. If it's going to get that cold this year I will cover it. Had lots of berries last year and none this year.
