Snow Covered Cedars

Snow Covered Cedars in sync with white clouds  against   a  clear blue sky makes this  sunny morning  after snow storm  glorious. I feel  i am outside as i look through my gallery  windows. The snow covered cedars have created a garden of trees in the middle of winter lifting my spirits and warming my heart.

Winter Wonder gardens

Snow covered ornamental grasses are a lovely sight to see. As i look out of the window at the 3 '' of snow covering all our  flower beds , i  am glad i did not cut down the perennials that have now created  winter wonder gardens for us to enjoy.
The snow covered  butterfly bushes and knock out Roses are a perfect landing for the blue jays that stay all winter.
Snow on the Red Bud tree branches glisten like crystals on a chandelier.
I wonder how winter sunshine can look so warm yet  feel so cold out side.
Winter wonder gardens in 3 '' of snow  is a lovely sight to see.
