I'm trying to be grateful for all the snow mulch on the stateline between Illinois and Wisconsin.  Really! snow mulch is good!  Protects the plants from these below zero temperatures, sort of.  I should just crawl in with them until spring. How's everbody else doing, weather wise?

Thank you Shawnee!

 

It will be interesting to see what happens.

 

Where are you that you have all that snow? We’re supposed to get lots of snow tonight.

Whatever else happens, those walking onions will walk all over your garden just fine.  And if that didn't happen, and you want some more, email me off-list and I will send you as many more sets as you could EVER  want-free! 

(Ahem!  I still garlic sets in the back of my van)  Shawnee, zone 5, the rest of the garlic safe under three of snow and a foot of straw mulch.

Thanks Bobbett,

 

Now I feel better about planting them today. The road crew guy thought I was crazy out planting today. I pretended not to notice him.

 

Toni, I’m glad I’m not the only one forgetting the bulbs. Maybe I don’t have “oldtimer’s disease” after all?
