In winter protection of perennials do not smother those kinds such 
as Dianthus, Chrysanthemums, Coral Bells, Coreopsis, Madonna 
Lilies, Nepeta, Primroses, or the biennial Canterbury Bells, Sweet 
William and Foxgloves, all of which keep green base-foliage through 
the winter. If a manure or strawy mulch is used, keep it off these plants. 
Pine branches or cranberry vine furnish ample winter protection.
