No snow over here Pereniallady, but had some frosted snow powder around the end of December last year.. Since then only a couple of days with light snowfall that almost instantly melted away.

Sorry to hear about the loss of your Belgian friend.
I've also heard of the method of using the potato water for house plants, but I haven't tried it myself, as i rarely eat them.

Helleborus argutifolius in my brother's garden.
The pics are from last year, but haven't been posted before. It has been transplanted a couple of months ago and it didn't like it. I've always heard that the best time for transplant is when it's in bloom. Haven't tried that out though!
