This has been a most remarkable weekend. A three-day ice storm has changed
our landscape into what looks like a war zone (sounded like it too, when
the trees were falling). Obviously Nature is not concerned with aesthetics
when she prunes. When we get our electrical power back (out for 6 days so
far) I will resume my catalog shopping, but the sun sure does set early
these days and candle light just doesn't do it for reading.
Anyway, can someone tell me how this ice will affect my perennials? Last
year we had ice early on and I lost a few things that apparently smothered,
but we had no snow cover before the ice came. This year we have about 10
inches of snow left. Will this absorb the ice?
Also, my heart goes out to everone in Quebec - colder, snowier and 2.5
million people without power. May you all find someone with a wood stove to
share.
