Possibly, but they may come back from the roots. Been a nasty winter this

I kept thinking that with my fuchsias last year. Of 10 in the greenhouse
only 1 came back. :-(

year with days below freezing and outside constant rain such that I worry
for our garlic which is not looking well at all. Don't think it likes
growing in a very cold paddy field.

Surprisingly, my garlic is looking very fit and healthy all of a sudden!
And I finally got round to putting out 3 rows of onions yesterday, too.
