Some Say Minnesota Winters are Brutal
Some say Minnesota winters are brutal to a fault. This last winter did seem to go on forever. In April many places of our yard were covered with thick sheets of ice and I wondered how many plants were entrapped under these glaciers.
I am walking the gardens each day wondering what if anything will fill the vacant spots as winter kill seems to be prevalent. In a huge patch of bare dirt sprouted this lone tulip that resembles a peony blossom. I think I will just take the good with the bad and this sole little fellow is for sure the good.
