I'm 2 miles from the Delaware River, about in the middle, north to 
south, of this long skinny state. It has been a very cold winter. Our 
low was minus 2.5 degrees Fahrenheit. A neighbor just a half mile down 
the road had minus 5.0 degrees Fahrenheit. Micro-climates, indeed.

Galanthus 'Potter's Prelude' was in flower on December 31, 2008. Eight 
flowers, and I must be sure to divide it this spring. I once had a very 
healthy clump of G. nivalis regina-olgae, up to about 20+ flowers each 
fall. Every time I saw it in bloom I'd say to myself, "really must 
remember to divide it, come Spring." I didn't, and then there was the 
Spring when it wasn't there. I can only assume it got overcrowded and 
all rotted out. Anyone want to sell be a bulb to start all over again? 
I'll do better this time, promise.
