    What's your weather like 2026

    I felt really cold today so heating is back on. Still have leccy blanket and fleecy bedding on too. Although the temps aren’t that cold, this wind mixed with rain is most miserable.

    MO Bactor Instant - thoughts

    Phormium which one

    Phormiums can suffer in cold, wet winters, especially if you have clay soil. I thought of Yucca as an alternative too. They have an upright, less arching habit so might suit you better.

    Am i understanding this correctly ?

    It didn't strike me that way at all. Just someone asking for advice, concerned about doing the wrong thing for their plants. In my book that is being sensitive to a plant's needs.:)
