Many of Cynthia's plants, such as bluebonnet and Kaffir lime, had a difficult battle during the winter. They are now blooming in her early spring garden.

Featured comment (in response to How Are You Caring For Your Herbs This Winter?) from au0rey:
"First winter coming living in this new property. I am going to move potted plants, which cannot stand winter, into the garage right next to the back roller shutter. I will roll up the shutter in the morning so the potted plants can get some sun and then roll down in the evening so they can be protected from cold at night. Car still can be parked right before the plants since it comes in from the front roller shutter. :)"
What about you? Howare you caring for your herbs while patiently waiting for the arrival of spring?
