January in the garden

Strawberry planter covered in snow

I didn’t bring my clay strawberry planters indoors this winter and after a snow storm here’s how one of them looks after a snow storm.

It’s strange.

They must absorb some heat from the sun even on cool days as the snow always melts around the planters and other objects resting on the stones around my raised beds or on my patio so much faster than it does anywhere else.

Here’s a shot of my garden as I stand near the patio looking towards the back of the yard …

Planters and birdfeeders covered in snow

My garden isn’t that attractive in the winter, but at least there’s something to look at when I peer out my kitchen windows!

    Beautiful photographs! I love snow, but haven’t EVER seen it fall from the sky witn my own two eyes. I once saw snow for real, but only after it had snowed. That was when I was 4 years old as well!! ๐Ÿ˜€

    I would love to see it for myself one day, but in the meantime, you pics are a consolation ๐Ÿ˜‰
