Hi tom, what a strange old winter...90% of the garden is looking decent now,but I've taken some heavy casualties,around £2K WORTH.
It's quite sickening really...loads of old shrub's..palm's..fern's etc. :evil:

Really sorry to hear that Karl. You really did have it bad. I missed out on the first lot you got. I'm so glad I went to town with the protection in Feb/March or I'd have lost a lot. My gunnera has been badly hit a few basjoo knocked to the ground and everything slower than last year but thankfully this wonderful weather is helping things to catch up.
