It’s been a bit nippy lately. Last night I recorded -15 and by mid afternoon it had warmed up to -7. A lot of the stuff i had growing in tubs in the unheated greenhouse has been unable to cope with such low temperatures. The celery has had it, likewise the lettuce. Broad beans that I sowed in November have blackened and wilted, spring onions look a bit limp and the chard and pak choi look as if they can’t stand much more of this. Oddly enough the oregano in pots looks the healthiest of all and I always considered it a mediterranean herb.
Outside the leeks are the only thing with their tops above the snow. Good job we like leeks

, just before this latest load of snow, so don't know if they'll survive. Can't get to my parsnips as the ground is solid 
. Must remember to dig a few up early and store next year!
