    I think Nut is right, probably windburn. It should soon resprout and there is plenty of time for it to flower.   Give it a good feed of tomato fertiliser or phostrogen andplenty of water, and put it in a sunny sheltered place.

  • Ok, thanks had me worried because when its in bloom its an amazing plant. Thought I was going to lose it.

     

     

    P.S  I live beside golf course in west coast of Scotland. Wind was terrible.

    If the weather turns really bad again, stick it in the greenhouse, shed, garage or porch, until the weather gets better. Mine are all still in the greenhouse being cosseted.
