Counting the survivors--stuff on the patio

Actually, most things came through the winter remarkably well, considering it got down into the low teens several days in a row in January.

• The daphne, bless it, keeps soldiering along, will be covered with bloom very soon, and really needs and deserves to be potted up this summer.
• The hebe that I got somewhere last fall had a rough time of it and is mostly, but not entirely, dead.  I'll prune it and see how it does.
• Sharifa Asma is starting to put out growth, yay!  I read an article somewhere this winter that gloomily discussed its incredible propensity for disease, and might I just say I WISH somewhere was some kind of even semi-authoritative reference on the disease-proneness of the various David Austin roses in various climates?  Thank you and good night. 
• The bay appears to have scale (of course) and has not grown a millimeter, which I guess is not a surprise.
• Kalmia latifolia is thriving and looks like it should bloom soon.
• There's an evergreen something-or-other mycrophylla whose tag I have lost, but who seems to be doing fine. (I think a cotoneaster?)
• The rosemary barberry (berberis x stynophylla Irwinii) that I bought on impulse at Lael's is swell, but still very mossy on its branches, and I should clean it off with a tweezers at some point.
• And the Japanese maple is fine, but I need to make up my mind whether it stays or goes, and also see if its barrel is rotting out on the bottom.
• I will need to decide what to put in the planter right soon -- that might be a good place for various annuals.

Soon we'll have to have the pergola-raising party!
