The weather's warming up fast, and we've been watching our Wildscape, in hopes that everyone (our plants) will return. But that's not to be the case, alas.
Here's our casualties:
Mexican honeysuckle (two, planted '09)
Plumbago (two, planted '09)
Gaura (all three, '09, but one may have reseeded)
Butterfly vine (two of four, '09; two largest died, two smaller ones survived)
Heartleaf hibiscus (planted '07; I sure hated to see that not come back)
Bulbine (three, planted '09; a lady in Austin said hers didn't survive winter either either)
An old rose bush (planted by Bendele family who lived here before us; didn't survive drought)
My bougainvillea (given to me by Mary Malone in 2002, left in the pot until planted 2008; another drought casualty. Sniff)
Overall, I guess we fared well in our Wildscape for winter 2009-2010.
