@Icegoddess , so delicate looking. The weather is weird here in Nova Scotia. We should be having snow and it is well above freezing, the grass is still green. What a strange year!

Thanks for sharing the beauty! ZS. aka Lilysmom

@Lilysmom1. All the while, we've had 3 major snow storms in the Desert Southwest. Last night our mountains got up to 2 ft. Avalanche warnings already issued. How ironic!

@Kachina624 @Lilysmom1 Yet the ski resort we go to in MT is barely getting any snow. I get daily snow reports and I think I've seen 1" all week. Hoping Spring 2021 is a lot better.

@Icegoddess. Well, for Pete's sake, come ski New Mexico. Our mountains got up to 2 ft last night and already had a lit on the ground. Angel Fire Resort or Taos if you want challenging.

@Nonametoday I so wanted October Affair before I bought these. However, at the time I was living in zone 7a which is outside of it's range. But, now I live in zone 7b which is in it's range. I didn't move. The zone for my area changed.

@Icegoddess The same happened to me. My zone changed (I don't think it changed; the experts changed their minds). Delphinum wilt nearly as soon as they open and tulips are beautiful until the sun comes out. LOL. I now put my delphinium, larkspur and poppy seeds in the refrigerator and sow them in March. I don't even try tulips any longer. Squirrels have eaten hundreds of daffodil bulbs and snails eat the amaryllis.

So, I am just doing mostly camellias, white azaleas, oakleaf hydrangeas, limelight, firelight and Annabelle.

Mine are blooming too! I live in North Texas, we've had freezes/rain/below normal temperatures and then a rollercoaster of above normal temperatures mixed in. I am amazed that after nighttime temperatures in the low 30s,wind chills in the 20s, cold rain and daytime temperatures in the 40s the shrubs continue to bloom and appear robust.
