I have to admit it's getting better

(It can't get more worse)

A little better all the time

(Better)

I've got to admit it's getting better

More Ugly - but a second chance

I've had these plumerias for a number of years

I thought this might be their last year when I brought them home from the storage unit

The jasmine behind them looks pretty bad as well

I took a chance and cut the stalks 

Dang

Maybe they'll live for another year

No hope for these though

They melted...or froze

My Madagascar Palms were about 6 feet tall last year and I've had them since they were in pint size pots - I've been hauling them in and out of the storage unit

 for years

No more

My next palm will be nothing like my last palm 

It was a painful dance 

Now I got a second chance

I'm trying a Sago this time

The Good, The Bad and The Ugly

The Good

The geraniums lived

Had to move them in and out of the garage all winter 

A lot of work for 2 small flowers

But it's worth it

Never had any live all winter before - that's good 

The Bad

I think Boston ivy could survive an Arctic winter 

It easily survived this one - that could be bad - it can get kind of invasive -

But the jasmine may have a tougher time coming back 

It looks bad

The Ugly

This jaws agave is kind of scary even when it's healthy

But when the cold has eaten it up it can be downright ugly

After a few months I hope the ugly shriveled parts will be replaced with tender new green leaves 

My spaghetti's getting cold and my wine's going flat 

Have to check the rest of the damage tomorrow
