I was really a bit worried about this Clem. cirrhosa ‘Freckles’ … it was very brown indeed through the drought. It always looks a bit unhappy in dry summers but looked very poorly indeed. I gave it a bucket of water occasionally.
Now look at it …
And the shrubby salvias didn’t flower much in the heat, but they’re making up for it now …

Lovely to see those "winter garden" pics! 2 days ago, my local weather forecast was terribly pessimistic, with night temps of minus 33°C.
However, this never happened. This morning I went out into my garden with minus 4°C on the outside thermometer and a lovely frosted garden. Here are some fresh pics.
