Definitely similar to here although great to see your tree ferns still looking green! Your Yuccas and Agaves really are coming into their own now and sizing up nicely 😃
"Hi Kriss" : Do you take Private Or Open-Day type appointment(s) to your 'Garden' P.s can you say what area of Yorkshire you are based !? Any 'feedback' gratefully received. Kind Regards, Paul .
@paulhill3622 hi Paul, I open my garden for the NGS and also give garden talks but don't open my garden for private groups. It's a family garden and used a lot in the summer.
It was a bit better in my part of Kent...but some stuff has been mushed. The storm has completely knocked over my large arundo donax. Question... should I cut down to the ground in spring? Was lucky last winter and they kept the height...
@YorkshireKRIS Thank for the reply sir. The wind has literally ripped half the clump from the soil. But I will leave the cutback till spring...cos you are absolutely right about micro climates... just them being there stopped the T rex from losing its leafs
Hi Kris I hope all is well for you mate, What is the Name or Latin name for your eucalyptus white stem tree at the back of your garden, As I'm quite interested to know the name. Cheers from josh 👍😃
Ooof, that Schefflera macrophylla looks very dead. All the cold hardy but not heat hardy Araliaceae that I buy (Brassaiopsis mitis *if you don't have it, you should buy it, it's incredible*, Schefflera taiwaniana, Fatsia policarpa...) end up like that in summer no matter what I do. The roots die and the rot goes upwards little by little until all the plant is rotted away. The main problem is that it looks like lack of water, something that is to expect in summer, so I always take too long to try to cut and root them, although I think I saved a Brassaiopsis mitis this year. Look at its base, it's probably rotting. No idea if it can be saved.

Yes the tree ferns are green for now. Hopefully they'll stay that way all winter. 🙂
At least you are protecting your plants! Here, we do practically nothing! That's all the difference!
I suppose we can think that the recent cold has put everything to sleep ... lovely garden
@kevinrobinson1056 that's how I'm thinking of it.
Looking healthy! 🍃
Down to -3.2c in Ainsdale.
well you know when you test the limits on subtropicals you're going to get burned sometime. It's worth it the end though.
Always sad to see the cold damage
@@lindadevuyst9311 it is, but always inevitable
Especially when we don't do anything like here!

@bobmac9627 with Arundo, if the stems are bent over now or at an untidy angle I'd cut them back. They're pretty hardy plants

Quite a mouthful!

Yes I think it's been lost at the roots either from too much or not enough water at something this year
