I even leave my perennials, for Winter interest as they say, ... brown sticks with brown balls, protruding from mounds of snow... again, the beauty somehow escapes me.
haha, I do the same thing Lavender. I don't really appreciate the "winter interest" as much as the birds. I have seen them munching on the seed heads of some things I grow, so I guess that's something. It does bug me that eventually they all seem to sprawl flat, after getting mashed down by the snow all winter. :/
My view is a town one, but not too bad if I look UP. A huge mountain rises over 3,000 feet from the valley floor just to the east of our little community, and when it's not foggy it's a nice view. Also we have a park one house away with gorgeous, huge ponderosa pines. We can also hear the breeze blowing through their needles and branches from our backyard.
