What's your weather like 2026
We were 19.8c for a few hours today but with the sharp breeze from the Northeast. I didn't tarry long potting up the Geraniums. Still sunny and 19.2c and still with the breeze.

Latest moan from you and me 2026
If you think setting your clock/watch is difficult in the Uk/Europe, try driving in Canada. British Columbia has 2 time zones, as have some other provinces.

Queen of the night or similar cactus- recommend please
I don't have Queen of the Night, but I do have some Epiphyllum. Plants often look the worse for wear.

Pyracantha removal
After chopping out a 40yr old pyracantha last summer I'd never entertain the stuff, it was in a neighbours garden. Diabolical stuff.

Magpie attack! Magpies pulling strands from trees
Happens every year with our Magpies, even our Blackbird has tried pulling Trachy fibres off. It does no harm to the plant to the plant all.

Cordyline Australis: Is this dead?
That looks very similar to the one my brother has. We had colder than -5c here this year and it suggests burgandy spires can only take a lite frost, so perhaps similar cultivars are the same.

Removing Ivy from Fence and ground
Get the ivy off the fence. It will work its way through the paneling and eventually damage it as well as upsetting your neighbour.
