Is snow hard on plants? A heavy, wet snow can sometimes bend plants over or even pull them out of the ground. But a light snow, as seen here, does no damage.​

These Rhododendrons have significant drought damage after a hot summer with little rain for four months.

A room full of plants is perfect for your Zoom Room! You’ll need a shade on the window to pull down while you’re on a virtual meeting in the day.

I can’t resist posting this shot of a display at the Northwest Flower and Garden Show…it is my fantasy Zoom Room!

Bulbs can tolerate growing in the snow and even winter temperatures. Trust that they know what they’re doing.
