Glad no-one's had any serious damage, only two days of storming to go now and then I think we should submit a request for an early spring.
To celebrate all my butts refilling after previous storm spillage (back at 4000 litres but better not speak too soon) I ordered 3 more bare roots from Trevor White, one that I wanted and two entirely random. It was Peter Beale's fault really, I received a free p&p offer (FEB22) and then went straight off to TW to do a comparison price check whereupon a purchase occurred. Sorry PB.
Still fine here too, windy out I can hear it howling but quite sheltered and my neighbour put a new fence post in after a storm a few years ago and I think its probably sturdier than the original im staying in with the dogs (Bassets), we are joking they'd take off with long ears!
Parents in midlands have a neighbours fence down but nothing else thankfully.
@pitter-patter those were done late October.. did not pay much attention, just pruned the branches and put them in the same pot as it was convenient at that time.. now, if I have to fertilize my roses I will have to find somewhere to put them.. with risk of damaging the young roots...
Quick question please, I think one of my roses planted winter 2019, the runt of the 5, is suffering rose replant disease. If I dig it up, I'm wondering whether I could plant a peony there instead. I have a feeling I can't as roses and paeonies belong to the same family?
Well, my Ghislaine has finally gone in - a stupid spot, ina hedge, but all I have right now. I'm keeping everything crossed. If it works, it will have been worth the punt. Everything in my gardens are squeezed into foolish crevices.
