Like everyone else we have have serious frosts, I'm ashamed to say I had not prepared my pots for winter, believing the mild weather would continue, 2 days ago I went out to get started I found the compost frozen solid, looks like I may have lost all my Begonias, fortunately my son Scott Had lifted my baskets into the Greenhouse which is bubble wrapped, so all the Fuschias are fine.
This is the very first winter that I have not been prepared good and early , must be getting lazy.
The Tomatoes have only just finished, they have had a terrific season as have the Chillies, wont grow as may Chillies next year as I am knee deep in them. Courgettes also.
The Clematis we planted this year are going well against the garage wall, hopefully next season they will cover it.
Sadly the Rhubarb, for some reason died last year so will need to get more in the Spring
I bought some Strawberry plants last summer, these will not be repeated as they were not sweet, must look up more carefully when I replace.
The Bougainvillea gift fom Scott must be in just the right spot as it is doing very well.
