Garden in Winter

I have been neglecting my blog again. It is easy in winter to curl up with the cats, garden books and catalogs. There is so much planning for spring,but I have finally been out in the snow to get some pictures.

New bushes and the last new bed for this spring



We are adding Ivory Halo bushes to the back yard in front of the pine (?) trees. The mature size of this Dogwood bush is 3-5 feet, compact with a variegated leaf and red branches in the winter. If all goes well they will be a lovely addition to the back border and most importantly adding winter interest.
3 Ivory halo ready to go.

Planted & mulched
looks better already

And this is how they look today, they really do brighten it up. I cant wait to see how they look this winter in the snow.
