We had an unusually snowy winter last year and a few things died. We had two jasmine plants in the back. One died, and the other seems to be struggling to stay alive. That said, the backyard is starting to fill out again after the brutal winter. I have some Mediterranean vegetables in containers out there which will start to look great once they get their flowers and fruits! Plus they will be edible! I need to get a few perennial climbing vines however that will be hardy enough for the wintertime. I'm tempted to try jasmine again, but am also thinking of honeysuckle and some others.
We need to get some stepable groundcovers for back there for the "grassy" side. We have some thoughts, just no time to execute as usual. Otherwise, it is cozy, and we hope to start eating dinner back there soon, as the days are warming up! D loves to climb the steps and "help" me pull weeds.
