All I know is it is a groundcover that doesn't need water (thrives on our 11" year). It is native to the high, dry elevations of Turkey. I love the way the leaves are green on top and wooly white underneath - and then the wooly white part curls up so the leaves are edged in white softness. Its my favorite groundcover.Oak Creek Ranchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02875705582058188289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3005422562901601859.post-16334496981058752092012-02-17T09:46:01.286-05:002012-02-17T09:46:01.286-05:00Hair waffles!

We're not used to it either after the unusually warm winter. Now when it gets cold I'm a little annoyed.<br /><br />Good thing you resisted the urge to start any gardening. Sounds like a plan until the spring. <br /><br />We haven't blanketed all winter so why start now. They're a bunch of hairy beasts and look like a herd of yaks. Not shedding too much yet either.

Jackson has started shedding too but we aren't up to more than a couple waffles at this point. I'm with you on the blanketing - but many folks are like Cowboy's owner. Not anything you can say will change their minds. It's cold here today, too -- but not like at your place.

The odd few warm days is normal too. <br /><br />Wish I could share the wealth - I have been extra careful about bragging... ;)Calm, Forward, Straighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08360276614916635500noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3005422562901601859.post-258748127330015602012-02-12T14:03:35.191-05:002012-02-12T14:03:35.191-05:00I would be much more satisfied with the very weird...I would be much more satisfied with the very weird weather that so many of us are having IF we could swap. You have warm for a while and then cold and so do we. It was 8 degrees at my house this morning, wind chill said -4. This is hours after sunrise. This is also just not normal for this area and if I could figure out who to complain to I would. <br />Hope your cold spell ends quickly. What is your normal weather for this time of year?Barbarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01571711150060964222noreply@blogger.com
