Jan 7, 2011 | 8:15 PM PST Now that Christmas is over my thoughts have turned toward spring. I'm wondering if the perennials that I planted around the greenhouse, this past fall, will come back in the spring.. I'm hoping that the Martin family will decide that the houses overlooking the garden will make a lovely home to raise their young.. I am visualizing a newly planted garden.. I am anticipating the joy of finding ripe vegetables on the vine.. I am learning what it feels like to "love watching things grow".. miss you, Daddy. :)

Spring fever is brewing that's for sure!!! My favorite catalog arrived today-Plant Delights! What a wonderful treat to have a greenhouse as lovely as yours full of special memories of your dad. How is Buzz??? ~Andrea

I am looking forward to spring. Like you, I am wondering what all this freezing weather has killed this year. We're not used to this.

Your perennials may be protected by the greenhouse and most likely will come back. But these last two southern winters are going to kill back some things. Spring/early summer will let us know for sure.

I am looking forward to spring also even though I like the winter..looking at some of the GG pics I long to be outside and in the dirt..having a fire and drinking cold beer....

Yep - wondering what has survived and thinking that some may have really liked our snow - as I have some marginal zone plants - that blanket of snow might have helped them....
