Winter flowers vs snow

Wow what a week of weather we have had, from the first real snow in 8 years to the wind which made you shiver to your bones. The boys had never experienced proper cover your boots snow and it is safe to say they loved it.



As you all know I was so happy with my winter container plants and border, lots of wonderful colour for the cold grey days and then the snow came and came and came.






We were very lucky we missed the most dreadful weather and school only closed for one day.

The snow has gone a little and the plants now have wilted and look like this







With more snow on its way will they pop back to life or has the cold snap finished them off.

  5. For being under all that snow, they still look pretty good! They still have their color, they just couldn't bear the weight of all that snow. Have you thought of making them little canopies or umbrellas to at least keep the weight off of them so their stems don't snap?
