still blooming

Our weather in NE Mississippi is still rather pleasant, even with a few cold nights. I think we have had one night with temps in the mid 30's. We also had some frost that same night.
I have a few things that are still surviving the weather. I think I could find a few blooms left on my gardenia bush, confererate rose, lantana, toad lilies, mums, mandaville, and my brugmansia have a few blooms left, and are loaded with buds. Just recieved a new combination in the mail today from Dutch Gardens. Thought I would try Fritillaria Persica with the yellow Dog Tooth Violet at the base. Also in that same order came my white bleeding heart. I can't wait to see it, does anyone know if it will bloom the first season? I love the change of the seasons, but have to admit I hate to see everythings die, wish we could have winter with all of the color of spring, summer, and fall. I look forward to spring when everything comes to life again, and us gardeners come alive with new ideas, don't you just love it?
