Winter Texture and Growth

Here are some images I snapped on my way back inside today from running errands. First day in a long while I wanted to even look at my garden mess...

Lots of weeds are there - overwintering just fine...

(little do they know what is in their future - the compost pile!)

Iris remains like garden hair and Hellebore as always...

Daffodils peeking through with this mild winter...

New Iris growth peeking through...

Lenten Rose Hellebore. Will need dividing this spring.

Like a wave cascading down the slope...

Another stinking butterfly bush baby popping up - must pull them all this year!

New plant from last year. Will have to ID because it seems to like my garden & hope it stays...
