Floral Friday: Jan. 5

It's a fairly quite week for the first Floral Friday of 2018. My Queen's Tears is continuing to bloom (lower left) and I have new growth on the mandevilla (lower right) that I trimmed back and brought inside for storing over the winter.

The weather outside has been downright cold and inhospitable, and I worry that my hydrangeas will be suffering the consequences of our recent cold snap. I never wrapped them in burlap in the fall so it is quite possible that they have suffered cold damage on old wood. Unfortunately, time will tell.
