Re: Weather forecast
Cut off the damaged tissue, or you will be risking rot with those temps.

Re: Weather forecast
I didn't get to it. Too cold outside.
I couldn't even force myself to have a look at the worms.

Re: Weather forecast
OK, they survived several lows of -14°C, lots of snow, frost and water, when it all started melting and now the same again. And most of them live. Damaged, but live. I didn't get deep enough to find those in the ground, but I guess the situation is the same. More to that. All those palms outside were in pots, so that's another advantage. Yeah, Ante, they are veeery strong. I must admit that. Those, that survive, will be planted in the ground next spring. Pics tomorrow, when the snow melts down.

Re: Weather forecast
What are these wreaths underneath the trees Sherry?
Jack You have lovely temperature recently Ivan Wow, I think it is not ordinary to have frost and snow in South-west France? Beautiful pictures you've made |

Re: Weather forecast
Those are wreaths that people have left on their loved one's graves...I was in a cemetery. Today, it snowing hard again. Here's a shot I took from my window...you can see an icicle hanging down in the picture from the roof... At -5°C...22°F, it's going to snow the rest of the day. Hope everyone's having a great Sunday. : ) |

Re: Weather forecast
That's because I was in an area of the cemetery where the stones are flat groundmarkers...not upright tombstones. That's why you don't see them because they are beneath the snow.
