SNOW and WIND and WET

Monty Don - Why snow can be a cold comfort to the gardener
Don't panic, it'll kill off the pests, protect plants from the wind - and keep your garden watered until spring.

Wilson Alwyn "Snowflake" Bentley (February 7, 1865 – December 23, 1931) is one of the first known photographers of snowflakes.[1] He perfected a process of catching flakes on black velvet in such a way that their images could be captured before they either melted or sublimated.
