Yes the same thing has happened to mine...they were flowering well before the cold spell but now they are cowering in flattened clumps looking very poorly. In fact most of the garden plants look flattened chewed or have disappeared ...I think RABBIT as when we moved out for Xmas they moved in! It all looked so neat and tidy before we left and now what a mess ! My enthusiasm has up and left with the plants......do any of you out there feel like this in January ...............?
Thanks to everyone. I will put the Tete a Tete into a container when they have died down as I may be moving in few months. The garden looks very scruffy generally - apart from a type of upright periwinkle (?) with white flowers. It has been in bloom for the past 3 months and really cheers up the garden. It came from a tiny sprig pinched from a public garden 2 years ago.

Sometimes butterfly - but it comes back with the hazel catkins and snowdrops
