More from the flowerbed

I have another garden story - I thought my prized double peach hibiscus died from the hard winter - cut it back to the ground & nothin - tried to pull it up to plant another one & it wouldn't come up - so I left it thinking "well maybe..." - checked on it often & nothing until day before yesterday - tiny green shoots coming up from the base - you see, it had a strong root system & although the outside seemed dead & lifeless all it needed was the dead stuff pruned off so the new life could come out - & just as life has its "hard winter" seasons, if your root system is strong new life will prevail!
