Mine made it through the winter in good shape also. I guess all the snow was good for them.

I haven't uncaged mine to look yet and won't until Mother's day, but it was a mild winter and they were well insulated. The thought of all those blooms makes the effort well worth it. lsimms, could you post a picture when they bloom? I love to see those flowers!

lsimms, isn't it amazing how early they are all budding out this year? My ES are showing the small, tender leaves already. Our temp has been in the 70's to even low 80's for the last few days so things are really going wild here! However, we will drop down to the low 30's by tomorrow night.... sigh! I got the sheets ready in case of any frost warning....

so many buds=but we will pnly hit 40's tonight so no worries--just fed everyone with holly tone-so we are waiting for a banner year.....
