No matter how grey the weather is, some plants always make it look as if the sun shines. Last Summer I planted a few “Euonymus Emerald’n’gold” in some places in the garden, when all the flowers are out in Summer you don’t see them as there is so much colour already, but during the grey months they look like little gems. They are very easy shrubs, wintergreen, and you can keep them small by cutting them, you can cut them into all shapes or you can just let them grow.

Those lovely things would be buried under two feet of snow here! I think I will have to tend with the black and white scenery for a couple more months.

We have had a bit of Winter recently, a bit of snow and temperatures below 0 C° but for most of the Winter we had lots and lots of wind and rain and very very little sunshine, but it is mid February already so I am getting my hopes up 😀
