Love looking at Pictures

Hey All,
Its that time of year.  I'm getting restless and I miss the garden!

So what I do is look at pictures of the plants, the greenhouse, cuttings, etc.  It helps me get through Feb which, in my opinion, is the worst month of the year in 6a.

Many pics made me smile, but I settled on just one, so I'm passing it on.  I encourage you to post a couple pics of your set up, or your favorite plant, cuttings, a beautiful fig.  Anything to help us all keep the blood flowing!

PS.  Jon, I really think your manage attachments option is the easiest one I have ever used on a forum.  Good work.

I am sure that tree looks like a lady dancing and rejoicing like a belle dancer standing on one foot with two hands stretched up and with long hair flowing in the air.
That is what it is?

Dieseler, what is the second from the left?  Nice pictures.

Hi Ed,
Hardy Chicago, the first one is EL.Sals
HC last season in mid Sept i notice the inside of fruit was a tone darker than normal maybe because of the cold weather season we had, but oh so good for me.

Here you go--Brown Turkey in Georgia last night. Are you jealous of us down south, Martin?

no no not jealuos of you kind folks in the south, hope to join one day matter of fact.
Anyhoot here is some photo's of what i went thru last april.
Notice the time on the photo's  hope there in order so there is an idea here.
Heavy wet snow .

 i had to go out there around 11:30 pm with trusty bow saw and cut some of the branches resting on the newer chainlink fence. Eventually i borrowed neighbors ax and with shovel dug and axed the roots inground out as pussy willow tree had 4 or 5 main trunks coming out of ground. Now one cannot tell it was ever there.
What was nice was that this tree's buds were pretty as they opened but a messy tree and i dont really miss it but im sure the yellow jackets do.

If you come far enough south, you can trade that snow for RKN.  I honestly don't know which one I dislike the thought of more.

I better take snow then RKN , You can make snowman from snow what good you can do with RKN ?

Feed the fire ants?

Nas33 like you said "to keep the blood flowing"
