    What's your weather like 2026

    It is now up to 5f -15c and sunny. The guessers say we might get up to the freezing point later.

    Hi @simone_in_wiltshire, yes I actually look at it daily. There's a new frond forming and last year's fronds are still looking good apart from 2 which got frost damage so I removed them. I'll probably remove all the others soon to make way for the new ones.
