Will they make it?

Last June we purchased 2 clematis plants and 4 Silvia plants for a trellis that Dale was going to build for his place in town. That never happened.

The plants were randomly watered and periodically flooded. But there are signs of life on each plant. Tonight I planted them in a garden that buts right up against the fence. The vines should take off nicely across the fence ... if only they make it through the winter.

The girls had fun running back and forth in the yard while I worked in the garden.
