I told you my flowers were little toughies. Could not believe what was underneath 35 cm's of snow. Many of my flowers were....intact! I had completely given up on them, but as the snow started to melt, I thought I saw a few blossoms poking out. Whaaaaat?! Things like impatiens were finished, but my roses, petunias, pansies and a few geraniums hung in there. As I have said, they have to survive in early June, when it is just barely above zero, so they harden off and come through in a pinch. Here are a few before and after pictures:
