In reading the ongoing subjects being batter about and while trying to re-coup from
last weeks snow, I'm going to ask maybe a novice question but I feel if you haven't
battered it around you might.
Has anyone done a survey on which plants survive a late storm better than others.
I don't mean species or particular name but whether it is a first year, second year,
or older planting. My own thoughts, the older clusters form a basket and catch snow
thus trapping moisture in the process, but snow sometimes insulates also. Bill Stone
