Jan, have you had a killing frost yet? We haven't here in Annapolis and no heavy wet snow like Holly.

My 5yo grandson sends me a "map" when I make the long trek to visit Vermont so I won't get lost! He tells me when the geese are flying down to visit me and I tell him when they are heading back up. Plant wise VT has hands down over here on lilacs! The city of Burlington has a lilac festival every Spring. I would trade the Tidal Basin cherries and azaleas for streets and yards filled with tall fragrant lilac bushes!!!

New grandkids and the smell of lilacs...Heavenly
