I planted shrubs,artic willow shrub,spireas 3 diff. kinds,a ninebark,winged burning bush on the east side of the raised deck. During the winter, which was a cold one with lots of snow, we shoveled snow off the deck onto the shrub border. Now the only ones that survived are the ninebark, a couple of spereas, altho they are very slow to leaf out,also the willow and its also really slow to leaf out.I was under the impression that the more snow to insulate them would be good, was I wrong?I don't know what to put there if they can't handle the snow,any one have some answers? Thanks
