The Monkey Puzzle tree in snow was cool too:
Too bad I had to trunk cut my Butterfly bush tree. The snow load snapped the trunk.

You're not worried about heavy snow breaking monkey puzzle's branches, Tim?
Re the butterfly bush, nice that you had it trained to a standard.
I have several old ones that each March I hack off right to the ground because they bloom only on new wood.
So you oughta get a fabulous flower show this summer! 😀

January 2013 has been an unexpected hell in my area 👿
Temps have hit -12 C (10 F) several times, and this current cold snap will likely be 100+ hours below freezing. It was -15 C (5 F) last night. Some plants in my yard are still barely protected! Normally Halifax receives this kind of weather for a week or two at the end of Jan/beginning of Feb, and that is the coldest time of the year. I'm hoping that we get all of the cold temps out of the way now instead!

In regard to the longer days,we have been gaining time(later sunsets) for a while
but tomorrow marks the first morning that the sun actually comes up earlier(1 min),the
day-length will slowly but surely start to increase now-in about 6weeks the sun
here actually gets strong enough to melt snow quickly even when it is below 32F.

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.

The MP does look like there is an alien under that snow! 😆
