It not only made it, it looks superb!
Congrats on well constructed protection.

I think you're the first to show beginnings of inflorescence.
Will be fun to watch that develop...
Bet you'll get...oh....five or six of them?

First winter in ground. I wanted to protect it a lot!
Will update pics when they start to open to ask if it is male or female!?

I planted mine from home in a warmer spot down the shore, and it still looks good too. Probably would have been destroyed up at home.
:shock:

Would love to see the new place and your plantings.

Cool, can't wait to see it Mike!
Love that you call it a retreat.

Lots of updates...even Wunderground updated...and eliminated my town somehow :lol: :lol:
So "virtually" I've moved to Kelowna. For the weather anyway.

Yup, I used to have the international C/F weather sticker.
That's gone too.
Besides me moving :lol:

All that for the red/yellow WU :roll:
