The snow has finally arrived — it's a toss-up if it stays or goes away, if the air temperature rises. For this reason in this area, Zone 5, we have to do our own protecting of perennials and roses. I dug up the dahlias but the tops were still green. I usually wait till a real 'killing' frost has blackened them — they appear to keep better over the winter. I have, fortunately, a friendly neighbor who allows me room in a cold cupboard as my basement is too warm. They either rot away or shrivel up, therefore the trip next door. As long as the ground is not frozen bulbs of all kinds can still be planted, there are still some available in downtown stores such as Cana- dian Tire and Howson and Howson. Possibly elsewhere as well. Like- wise, if you intended to more a peony, with a good root and bud sys- tem, it should flower for you next May. I once moved one in December, but the hole was dug early — also roses. Hortico Co., for one, begins shipping roses as of Nov. 1. I use lots of' straw for mulch, although it is very untidy looking, it lessens the freeie and thaw cycle. I don't 'clean up' 'the flower beds till spring — dead stems help to hold drifting snow and also some self -seeding sometimes occurs resulting in nice surprises for next year. The only leaves I do cut down and put in the garbage are peony leaves and stems as they may carry botrytis, a fungus disease. All other surplus leaves either go into the composter of onto the rub- bish heap which means anything which will rot and provide abundant humus, which will save on peat moss. Just in ease there is a heavy snowfall, I tie together the stems of bush roses, bridal wreath spirea and pronos iribola — the snow can settle into the centre of the bush and break off most of the stems. Binder twine is useful for this, or regular nylon hose which stretches a little.
