Of course I might have a heart attack if it snowed this early in Washington State. <br />I am glad that you have some flowers that seemed to have survived the chilly offense.

I hate to see our winter come, and we have really mild winters, as a rule. Do you cut the perennials back now, or wait for spring to cut them? It is so hard for me to do, but I leave them until spring. My garden looks terrible, but it is so much better for the plant. Better they look bad for awhile than be dead.<br /><br />Do you do any winter sowing? <br /><br />I love that 'Fireworks' goldenrod! Does it grow from seed, or cutting? The verbena bonariensis grows wild here, but I have been tempted to purchase seeds for my garden. I am afraid tho, as they would surely plant themselves everywhere.<br /><br />I enjoyed the visit!janiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16978979417557447666noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8333330062798605073.post-63429453273950132452009-10-12T22:28:29.522-05:002009-10-12T22:28:29.522-05:00Hi Sue, I'm thinking it's about to close u...Hi Sue, I'm thinking it's about to close up shop.
