By mcash70 | In cold zones where you are fortunate enough to get snow, it's a good idea to shovel extra snow on plants and shrubs, especially near the foundation as it doesn't always get good coverage. The plants are more likely to die from drying out than from the cold. |
If you pile snow in a windy hilltop garden, it doesn't blow away like fallen snow can, and this is also an area that's very susceptible to drying out.
