Finally planted the 2 Calluna vulgaris, the Nassella tenuissima, and the Carex comans 'Frosted Curls' that have been sitting in the foyer for a month.
I put the Nassella near the dwarf maple. To make room I dug up a few of the Liriope and put them in the front corner of the front yard near the Silver Thyme. I also had to displace some of the Ajuga. I put those in the side yard next to some other Ajuga that will go in between the slate on the side of the house eventually.
The top inch or so of the soil was frozen in some area but not in others.
I noticed that the Silver Thyme is finally dying back to the point that it looks the way Thyme should look in January.

planted the rest of the bulbs from American Meadows - the wildflower bulb mix, winter aconite and the species crocus on the side of the house.
Planted some winter aconite in the front in a few places.
Noticed that the wire vine had died back completely.
One of the Hellebores has three buds.
