Such a great subject for a banner at this time of year. I can think of the crocuses here sleeping safely under their blanket of snow, waiting to emerge, just when we most need a spot of color and a taste of new life.

Thank You! all. Although I am now retired after 30 years of winter lambing (think swapping minus 15 degree days for + 20 degrees now inside) I still appreciate winter cold and snow, if only to give me a rest between gardening seasons Rolling on the floor laughing A good snow cover also means I can push the envelope when it comes to growing things that prefer a warmer zone.
