I hope so - you've got it for 4 days. Was going to be one about storm Dave tomorrow but round here it looks to be windy but dry so probably Dave won't affect most of the rest of you much either. I hope the forecast I read was right - I'll be out.

Windy here, possibly last nights curry but the camellia flowers are dropping into the bloody pond. Bloody pain.

You need vegetarian piranhas to sort that out. Phone your pet shop tomorrow and order some.

According to what I have read, and also what happens to my own,  the couple of late frosts we've had can damage Camelias.    Frost won't usually hurt the tight buds,  but if its frosty when the buds are starting to crack open,  it damages the emerging flower petals and they go all brown and often drop off.

I have several beautiful Camelias,  one covered in opening buds, and like an idiot I didn't cover them in time and now most of the buds are on the ground.    Gertie, being the avid gardener that she is,  keeps collecting them all and filling her bed with them!     :rolleyes:

Very nice Vlad, pretty.     Though I think I'd have to have a tree surgeon and trim then down a little as they look very close to your roof?
