Default Re: Getting very cold here (for us!)

Hi mskitty

The floodwaters up here on the north coast had just about dried up, but we have had 2 days of fairly heavy rain and as the ground is super-saturated, the water is just lying on the top. We are on a slight rise but our Swiss neighbours had 4 inches of water in the house and the swimming pool was full of mud and leaves. But not all bad as all this water will make the nanas grow like mad once it warms up again. Still waiting for my pathetic ladyfinger to start to grow - it just has 1 tattered leaf and I don't think it will put on any more. I expect it to produce a pup and check it daily but it is still hanging on - just! It started to dwindle as soon as I planted it on 2nd October but I talk to it every day.
