You will feel the cold temps soon dave. I don't want to put a downer on your growth and temps as its great but the whole of the UK is going to be feeling some of this cold at some point by the sounds of things.

I found a caterpillar on my echium this morning when i removed the draped fleece so it had its final days.

My Lapageria rosea, P. caerulea and Eccremocarpus scaber are growing.

Hellebores - one flowering, others coming up.

Mean temp this month so far (1-20 Jan) - 8C. I reckon the average mean Jan temp is around 4 or 4.5C here, so quite an unusual January! I know it's not over yet, but it looks like it's set to end up well above average.

here so far it's 6.6C, which is just above average (81-10) though it's felt much colder than this. I suspect by months end it'll be average or just below (around 4.5 to 5.5). Actually it's been a typical month without the mild days and the frost..

Leaf buds on my Acers.

My goji berry has greened up again.

Most deciduous things have leaf buds. The only things that don't must be the kiwi and grapevine.

Also actively growing are the Pandoreas and Rhodochitons.

Edit: Roses next door are flowering
