    It looks as though you must have grabbed it all! :hate-shocked:I always take photos of snow and have none at all in 2018. I reckon the Dartford crossing must have been closed so it couldn't get to us. :heehee:

    I bought a couple of these. The first season after planting, the leaves were completely demolished by caterpillars. Rather put me off replacing them.
