It was so cold overnight that the windows are starting to ice over on the inside!

On the other hand the hellebores are like “bwahaha ice storm? What ice storm?” No worries there at all. The ones I’m worried about (Phormium, Cordyline) will stay covered in their leaf blankets for a while yet. 2/2

Yesterday’s ice storm has melted away, leaving us with a “Pineapple Express”—gusty warm wind out of the SSW with heavy (for us) rain. How did the plants fare? Well as expected the giant calla lily (left photo) now looks like that watercress side dish you get at the Korean BBQ, and the Farfugium japonicum “tractor seat plant” is similarly done in. Both will pop back no problem in the spring. 1/2

Ice on the Allium seed heads. Ice on the kale (it’ll survive). Ice on the parsley umbel (so long, parsley).

Ice on the Euphorbia. Ice on the Mahonia. Ice on the flowering quince.

Our arctic vortex is ending in an ice storm! Woke up to several mm of ice coating everything. Not as bad for the tender perennials as the bitter dry cold of yesterday but now I’m just waiting for tree limbs to come crashing down

MikeMorganKFOR: I don't always track cold fronts well over a week in advance, but when I do, it's SIBERIAN. Translation: UGH. @kfor 12.16.22 twitter.com/MikeMorganKFOR/sta
