::Winter is imminent :(


No shade, no shine, no butterflies,
no bees
No fruit, no flowers, no leaves,
no birds! -- No-vember!

::Winterizing container Trees and Shrubs::

This is taken directly from this month's Gardening Life Magazine:

Option 1-Keeping Container Outdoors:

Wood, fibreglass and plastic containers weather best; clay may crack.  To insulate roots, sink containers into the ground or wrap the container in layers of heavy duty plastic or bubble wrap and then burlap to endure the cold. Place stakes in the pot and wrap burlap around the plant to protect from wind and heavy snow.

Option 2-Move into a garage or unheated shed:

Water the plant until frost and then throw snow on soil surface to supply gradual moisture. Elevate the pot on bricks or chocks.

::Circular Driveway that gets a lot of snow::

This client's driveway had a a center circle that was open to many possiblities. A fountain? a nice shrub border with seating?  All options were considered but mother nature won out.  A nice pattern in stamped concrete proved to be both stylish and low maintenance.Img_0358
