Gardeners worry. We love to fret about our plants and the weather conditions they are exposed to throughout the seasons. My friend Henriette Suhr used to call me throughout the darker months of the year, concerned about how a hard frost and high winds in November or ice and extreme low temperatures in February would impact the plants in her garden.

Non fu misericordia; Stefano ereditava qualche bene di fortuna, che il congiunto gli dilapidò. Egli lo venne a sapere più tardi; fu consigliato anche ad intentargli una lite, ma non ne fece nulla. Era un uomo soave e riconoscente, che non amava molestare il pross
