Here's to all the global warming pushers, may your winters be -30 below and four feet of snow in your driveway. Because I want you happy.

That`s great seeing Y.elatas planted there Barb. I wonder where they got them from. They must have brought them in special delivery? That will be your favorite corner now.

Aaron you would be more than welcome. Of course you would have to bring up some Yuccas when you do 😀 Barb that Oak tree is what is going to anchor the winter protection.

John

Thanks John. 😀 And yes I would bring up some yuccas. 😉

Thanks.
Thought glauca has a wider leaf?

Being an apartment block (versus a residence), will check with the manager.
He must know who maintains their outdoors.

Will get some shots when they flower.

If you drink, don't drive. Don't even putt.

I'm going to say 80% sure they are elata. There are, however, narrow leaved Y. glauca which look very similar.

As Tim said, once they bloom there will be no doubt!

I'm sure impressed with their late winter condition.

They took -19C for a low 😀 😀 although downtown is likely a few degrees warmer than my place in winter.

The exposed corner lot means they get nailed with winter winds and salt/snow from road clearing. 😀
Plus, I didn't see any irrigation drip/spaghetti tubes!
Great news!
