    Noticed it was a bit quiet on the new thread, so posted a video of some of the flowers still blooming in the garden here in spite of some recent frost damage to a lot of plants.

    Happy gardening!

      You have a lot there to look after Macraignil and a brisk wind but lovely blue skies.

        It seems you have quite a large garden with a nice collection of different plants and shrubs, it's always interesting to see it ...

                        Bit surprised that these two indoor Fuchsias will just not stop flowering and actually seem to be producing much bigger blooms than in the summer.
                        The greenhouse temp being held at 3-4c.
