Winter has Arrived

January is here, with eyes that keenly glow,
A frost-mailed warrior
striding a shadowy steed of snow.
- Edgar Fawcett

Christmas has come and gone. We had a week of very mild temperatures. I was able to take advantage and get my daughters Arbor Day tree in the ground in the front yard. I was also able to put the mini Christmas tree's we bought in the back yard. I don't think all of them will make it. Unfortunately, some of the trees we bought are not suited for our zone. I think we might be able to save two of the five. I will try and have pictures soon.

I lost one of the hibiscus transplants over the winter break. I am trying to put more care into the two remaining pots. I would love to have a flowering hibiscus shrub this year.

I think I was able to save my worms. Im going to check them this week but it looks like they were able to move from one bin to another.

Also I got my first two installments of Organic Gardening Magazine, What a great publication. Full of great information.

More pictures soon.
