A day in my garden...

Today I decided to take a walk in my garden. While much of it has died back due to the cold temperatures, there is still much life. I am entering my garden walk into #wednesdaywalk which was started by Hive account@tattooedjay to encourage us to get out and enjoy our surroundings. I am also joining in on the #gardenjournal2018 which was started by Hive account@simplymike so that we can share all that is happening in our gardens, both inside and outside.

We have a little bit of snow...not much for this time of year.

Many of my flowers still look green as they poke out through the snow.

My butterfly bush is one of the last to give up in the fall and one of the last to join in on the fun in the spring.

My forget me nots seem to be already preparing for spring.

You can see the stems from the bee balm in the background.

During the summer, this pot holds a geranium. During the winter, the geranium joins me inside.

I often leave my hosta flowers on the plant. They reseed and I have little hosta in the spring.

Some of my lamium...

One of my hydrangea...

Another geranium pot...

I leave the flowers on my hydrangea for the winter because I really like the winter interest. This one is an Annabelle hydrangea.

New growth already getting ready for spring.

The bunnies ate the flowers that I planted in the pot this year. I decided to try putting some lamium in the pot to see if it would survive the winter.

All of this lamium started from just a few plants. It has filled in beautifully. I like it so much that I am putting it in other gardens around my yard.

Thank you for joining me today while I took you on a walk around my garden during a less than typical time for a garden walk.
