This white Lenten Rose has been buried under snow in my Southern Tier of New York garden since late December (more or less).
Finally, this weekend, with snow melting, it made an appearance but the buds already weren't looking good.
After these pictures were taken, a cold front came through, and the temperature dipped down to 11 degrees F (-11C). Because we had freezing drizzle yesterday, I haven't gone out to see if the buds survived.
But now the temperatures will be warming up again.
Sometimes, when there is no snow cover, this plant's buds die and there are no blooms for another year. The next few days will tell the story.

ReplyDeleteI am curious to see how many plants I have lost over this extremely cold winter.
ReplyDeleteOh lovely to see flowers ~ do hope they survive '~ hugs
ReplyDeleteI hope they survive. Winter can be so cruel to plants.
ReplyDeleteThank you for joining the Wordless Wednesday Blog Hop.
Have a fabulous Wordless Wednesday. ♥
It looks a little sad, but maybe it will surprise you. (Hope springs eternal, and all that!)
ReplyDeleteWell, seeing ground is good, but those temperatures sure aren't.
ReplyDeleteThere are some materials to cover the plants. Maybe in the next winter you can protect them. I hope they'll survive.
ReplyDeleteHappy WW, Alana! A fine week!❤️😘
