We're finally starting to warm up here. The frost took a toll on all of our bushes and trees. Everything is still looking terrible and brown. I can tell that we have green underneath so in March I can trim everything back and hopefully have pretty green again.
I posted a while back about the problems we were having with bees under my husband's workshop. We had a massive hive underneath so the bees kept coming back no matter how many times we killed them. The hive had to be removed. The workshop had to be jacked up and the hive was removed.
We are now bee-free. Woot-Woot!
I was able to get some flowers planted in some pots that will probably hold me over until we are able to get our summer lawn in. I miss the green.
On a side note, I found a recipe for home made kettle corn here. It was very simple and delicious. The secret is to just keep the pot moving on the stove or the sugar will burn very quickly.
Sweet and salty deliciousness.

Love your flower pots! Especially the pink Calla lily, I have yet to achieve success with colored Callas.
How brave of you to plant those tender little beauties! I'm still afraid. Very afraid...I struggle to grow anything in AZ. Either too hot or too cold.
I cleaned up a whole dumpster full of leaves that froze off our ficus trees. It almost made me cry. We are so used to mild, mild winters that we crumble when it freezes. Your flowers look lovely.
Thank goodness they got them all! Your flowers are beautiful!!
I'm getting spring fever also. I might just head out this weekend and see if I can put some flowers in my pots. Need some color!!! Love ya!!
