Well, Ellen, at least you got 8 to 10 inches of snow before the big freeze.
We only got 2 inches on Sunday and yesterday morning was -51C with the wind
chill. There is going to massive winterkill through the city this year. We
didn't mulch this year either, so we should be expecting some losses. But
being the optimist, I'm hoping that all are new purchases got well
established for the winter and that we got varieties that will get through
this weather.
