Another week, another storm: as I write 70mph winds are battering the house once more as the weather ricochets from deep freeze to torrential rain within a matter of hours.
Yes, the best advice I have seen this year (in a few places!) is 'stop - don't sow yet'. As most magazines come out a month or 6 weeks beforehand, it is important to take note of this when they are read
FYI, here in the east it was -7.7C/18F last week - lots of running out to the GH with old duvet covers to drape pots. Fingers are crossed. Still after a terible night, the sun is out today and wind has dropped to 20+ mph so I am feeling positive for now.
Yes things are a little calmer here now - though it's getting blowy again tomorrow *sigh*. Duvets are a good idea - have you dared pull them back and have a look yet?! I'm sure they'll be fine :D

Yes, time will tell - I may not know about some (like cannas) until spring but I have done my best :)
Nice to have found another use for my worn king size duvet covers (besides being drop cloth for DIY)
