New Garage Layout

Mid 50s today but very gusty, windy and raw.

We spent the day rearranging the garage.  Since there will be no shed (don't get me started...), I need some kind of set up in the garage for gardening materials that can't be stored outside on the potting bench.

We moved the car to the far bay, put the John Deere and trailer and wheelbarrows in the near side and set up shelving.  Here's how it looks now:

In the process we cleaned out a lot of stuff and freed up space.  Much neater.  The challenge will be to keep it neat.

It's been so cold, especially at night.  How cold?

• Still no blooms on the 'Okame' cherry.  Buds were all well open on March 27 last year.  It's now April 3 and nothing.
• The 'Blau Doneau' macrophylla hydrangea had leafed out in its pot in the garage.  It was getting quite green and leafy.  I put it on the porch where it gets more light, but repeated overnight temps in the low 20s have turned the leaves black and mushy.  I think the roots are fine and it will leaf out again.

In the wind today a garage item went flying and lopped the Cornus mas in two again.  Sheeesh.  There is just the tiniest strip of bright green under the skin of the pencil thin twig top.  I put the purple clip back on to hold it together.

At the very bottom of this little twig shrub a yellow bloom is getting ready to open.  But will the leader stem survive and graft back together?
