Urban Terrace Garden Party: Trees, Plants, Shrubs and Vines Play Peek-a-Boo











The buds of my Actindia kolomiktia (Kiwi Vine) have just begun to appear, assuring me that perhaps we will have spring one day, hopefully before summer. I've written about this wonderful vine, which you may read by clicking here. Meanwhile this vine has patiently endured the winter,




wrapped around the railing beneath the snow, while its friends (my plants and herbs and shrubs) huddled together in containers wrapped in love with bubble wrap and burlap as seen below (but they had their share of snow too),




and described in my posting on urban garden winterizing.






I imagine its been somewhat lonely for the Actinida kolomikta, but it is entwined with its counter-part Actimida, and I know they are eager like me to have the shrubs, trees, and plants be unwrapped, but it's only April (and it's a chilly one) so for now, like me, they will have to be patient and "settle" for playing plant-peek-a-boo.
