I spent a good part of last summer transplanting and thinning my garden. My irises are all divided and transplanted. I am anxious to see how they do. They were already starting to grow before this really cold time hit. I also got some new plants from Terese as the amount of shade they had and where it was had changed. I will be anxious to see how those plants do as well. Once it finally got to freezing on the west side of my house (try December) I divided and replanted my amaryllis. I planted one bulb a number of years ago and it really prospered. I was able to plant a short row of amaryllis where the other one was. It was a good spot so why not use it again. (If anyone would like an amaryllis, I have two in pots that could use a new home.) I was able to give a couple of bulbs to my mother-in-law who is an avid plant person, not vegetables, but lots of indoor plants. She rarely puts things in the ground and I am just the opposite. I run out of room in my house and decide I enjoy them better in the yard. I also got a new crepe myrtle from my neighbor and it did not look good when it got transplanted. We'll see. My main plan is to tend the things that are planted and try to make sure they survive. I had really good luck with tomatoes last year so will make another stab at that. I planted them in a new place where I could watch them more easily and being home so much of the time made for better care, I am sure. If there is anything else it is hard to think about that when it is the middle of the afternoon and 19 degrees. Here's back to warmer weather soon! --Carolyn
