    Recommend a small-ish evergreen shrub that is nice to sit with

    I like the scent of the Sarcococca - not many flower scents I dislike. Some people do tend to lose their sense of smell ( and taste) as they get older.

    This magnificent critter shows up very infrequently, she must have a large territory to cover. I just wish she would put a dent in the gray squirrel population.

    My cuttings of Chocolate Drop are overwintering quite well so far. The sweet peppers went in today. So I popped in a few micro dwarf seeds into the propagator to keep them company.
