The garden can be so beautiful in winter. Last week, we experienced the strange (for here) weather combination of thick fog, frost and light snow all in one morning. The scenery in the landscape was spectacular from this weather. Here are my favorite (non-blurry) photos I snapped whilst venturing out in the garden with two curious toddlers in tow.

A blue ceramic pot with the skeletal remains of Russian sage.

Agastache and red twig dogwood.

Gaillardia and Aspens in the background.

Ornamental pears cling to their branches.

A frigid artichoke flower.

Ornamental grass and Golden Fleece with a granite boulder (one of dozens that we dug out of the back yard.)
