We have had a snow deficit here at Larrapin Garden. Actually, it’s a little dry all around. (Universe: I’m wishing for snow or gentle unfrozen rain, not anything with the word *icy* in it or the dreaded ‘wintry mix.’ Just wanted to be clear on that…) As I said last week, several folks have offered to share their snow with us. So pictured above is a loaner from my friend Marianne in Asheville, NC. That’s her sweet little gingko tree in one of their (many) snows this winter.
Maybe there’s been skimpy snow, but the sunsets have tried to make up for it! Nearly every evening we’ve had intensely colored sunsets like the one above.
Meanwhile, my first seed order has arrived from Baker Creek Heirloom Seeds! The year has really begun now. Next post I’ll tell you about a few of the packets that are old favorites and others that are new varieties I’m very excited about. Hope to see you here on Wednesday…unless there’s a huge snowstorm and I’m out taking snow pics… 🙂

I love Baker Creek Seeds and they have a beautiful catalog. Winter blues were getting the best of me so I purchased some wooden letters… G R O W and decoupaged them using pictures from the Baker Creek Seed catalog. ‘Fun project!
