Rose Gardening in the Winter that Just won't End!

Well, it's March 2nd and less that 20 degrees outside. Not to mention the tremendous amount of snow on the ground. Oh, and you can add another 3-4" that fell overnight!
I for one, have had enough Winter!

Thought I'd share a few 'Winter Garden Pictures".  (Maybe I should call them 'Snow pictures", since the garden  is barely visible under it).

This is my Garden Bench; completely buried!

Here is a shot of part of the Rose Garden; I can't even walk out to it; it has over 4' of snow on top of it!

The Rose Garden

 
This is my back yard. There is a lovely Herb garden buried beneath that snow! The path you see was where my husband  went out there to shovel the back roof.

But...what can you do? Waite for Spring, and make the most of it!
While I'm waiting......I made some wonderful Rose Petal Bath Salts from some dried rose petals from last years garden (I always have some saved and dried, ready for whatever project I need them for)!

It is a Super Easy recipe!

While some of you may already be experiencing spring;.......I'll be
Relaxing in a hot refreshing tub with my gardening catalogs and dreaming of this years garden!
 
Have a great day and,
Happy Gardening!
