Beautiful ice in Mary’s Minnesota garden

When Mary Yee in Edina , Minnesota , sent me these photograph last calendar week , the subject line of her e-mail was “ Photos of Methedrine in the garden – yep , it ’s Minnesota . ” Minnesota , indeed ! I ’ve only been to Minnesota in the summer ( I hump IT ! ) , but I ’ve hear that the wintertime are brutal … At least you have these beautiful sights to tide you over til spring !

Mary says,“We are on the leaflet of our insensate days in Minnesota as we await the new yr . The most beautiful plants in the garden now are the snowfall - dusted conifer and the bur oak tree , whose duncish black branches are attractively outlined in white . That enounce , the most decorative objects in the garden right now are not plant but the natural ice sculptures . ”

So genuine , Mary . Thanks for helping us to see the lustrous side of winter .
