I cannot imagine having the hellebores still in bloom, much less the prospect of an ice storm here on the cusp of May.

I haven't yet got any plants growing to damage so the only thing feeling battered was myself. I love how so many hellebores are freckled lately. Is it a new thing I wonder or something I just never noticed before?

My thought is that my book WOULD be quite useful for you since you're coastal and probably aren't that much different--certainly no colder--than we are.
