Thus spake Martin Sykes unto the assembled multitudes:
Presumably if it is the change in light direction that is causing buds to
drop, the problem could be caused by changes in positions of large nearby
items ( the christmas tree appearing and the disappearing spring to mind).
These would block previous light sources and change the direction of the
strongest light.

I wouldn't have expected a plant which is (presumably) adapted to living in
harsh conditions to be of such a nervous disposition! :-)
