More Snow!

We have a nice, two-inch coating of snow, which is predicted to melt. Elsewhere in Minnesota, the same snowstorm dumped 20 inches and more. The photo shows my garden beds and compost bin. The photo below is my hibiscus. I had seriously considered composting it, but I didn't have the heart. So I bought a new container and potting soil. It's doing well so far, and I'll set it back outside in May. I have been spraying it with neem oil, which seems to be the only thing that takes care of fungus gnats. Or maybe they're fruit flies.  I didn't have a problem at the old place, so I'm learning. Thomas Jefferson said, "But tho an old man, I am but a young gardener." So true!
