Over the last couple of days the weather models have increasingly begun to agree that we are heading for colder weather next week. Frost and possibly some snow is likely and anything that is not fully hardy will need protecting. Some plants which have strated to grow or flower early may need protecting even if they are usually hardy.
The plus side is that (hopefully) we may actually see something of the sun. Possibly.
This is the path outside my back door this morning - I am not in the flood area, but everything is so saturated that these 3 paving slabs with gravel and plants in between have been under water since Boxing Day. At least colder weather will hopefully mean less rain, but the whole lot will probably turn into a skating rink!
The 2 submerged plants are a gentian (nearer) and lemon thyme. No idea if they will survive this experience.
