Did you know you shouldn't shake the snow off your plants? Snow is an excellent insulator against the cold and the wind. Most plants, especially evergreens like boxwood, benefit from the thick blanket snow can provide. Now, in a super wet and heavy snow its a good idea to remove some of the snow. You don't want branch to start breaking under the snow load. But under normal conditions the plants can cope perfectly with snow. Their branches will flex and conform to the snow's needs, and when the snow melts in spring the memory within the branches will return them back to normal. #LetsGrowGreenTogether #winter #tips
