In Cambridge, it is still winter. It is not a good idea to move such things when the soil is actually freezing at night. Regards, Nick Maclaren. |

During the night our central heating came on - that's unknown, it's set at 10C Very bright sunlight though, the water is heating nicely from the solar panel. Mary |

Night-time minima of about 4C over the last few days down here, with no sign of frost :-) This whole winter has been very mild so far, with only two light ground frosts, one each in November and December, and no air frosts. But there's still time...... It sounds bizarre even to me but after 10 years of living in England, I'm still trying to get used to any frost at all! Our winters are pretty mild here but I was used to leaving Pelargoniums out all year round and having them bloom again in the following year, for example. I grew Ballota in a crack in some granite paving once and it was up and through a very mature Camellia within 3 years. To me, this is inhospitably cold and it isn't a jot or tittle of what other parts of Britain have been getting. It's the east wind that does it - the original lazy wind. Too lazy to go round you so it goes right through you. -- Sacha http://www.hillhousenursery.co.uk South Devon 'We do not inherit the earth from our ancestors, we borrow it from our children.' |
