And one that it seems I could grow here thanks to the maritime climate. In the mean time, I have a lovely Viburnum, which sadly I cannot smell as I seem to have a permanent cold, and a newly flowering hammamelis. One of the things I promised myself when I moved here was that I would pay more attention to winter interest, so thank you for another candidate to add to the mix.Janet/Plantaliscioushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15605580157193047780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6119628314111837184.post-73672285053333643462013-01-09T22:07:10.730-05:002013-01-09T22:07:10.730-05:00Skeeter, thanks!!
