We are in Texas now, but we gardened in upstate NY for about 25 years. For perennials and herbs, leave them alone. The snow is actually a mulch...
Oh, I did love to watch Paul James on HGTV. He was great as one of the announcers of the Rose Parade, too! Our local PBS has The Central Texas...
Ducks came into our pond about six weeks earlier than usual. We have more passerines at an earlier date, and are getting "inquiries" about some of...
