Today, I said "After a winter like this one, it's sensible not to buy
a plant from a garden centre until it has started sprooting, so you
can tell the live ones from the dead ones."

Ah, well. You know what I mean ....

Indeed. I was relieved to see some new sproots on the Spirea which I
severely pruned in November because it was looking exhausted after years
of fending for itself.
