Hardiness of 'tender' plants
My Feijoa sellowiana, Punica granata (not surprisingly), Callistemon rigidus all shrugged off nights of -8 Celcius and having their pots frozen. Agapanthus africanus suffered, but lived. Hedychium gardnerii, Acacia retinoides and Caesalpina gillespii all survived being left (very) dry and dropping below zero. I am surprised about the first. Brugmansia aborea lived, but hasn't show signs of life yet, and Erythrina crista-galli seems to regard our apology for a spring/summer as not worth sprouting for. How ON EARTH does it grow in Edinburgh? And I have lost half my rosemarys, most of my marjoram, but not my origano, and some of my thyme and winter savory. Plus, I moved most of my horseradish and have lost the lot! Perhaps it is sensitive to walnut exudations. Regards, Nick Maclaren. |
