Great pictures Leesy. Your lovely tree fern makes me sad - I lost mine this winter and it was wrapped up.

How did you wrap it up, we have 2 and both survived the way my OH does it is he dosen`t cut the old fronds like some tell you to but just puts a big pile of straw into the top and pads it down well.

Love the bleeding heart! I am after some of that myself for the front. I can see why the cats would like the jungle!

Just the same, with one of those plant jackets over the top. I'd kept it for about 7 years.

Lovely pics Leesey

Angie - what a coincidence; I was meaning to ask you about the tree fern. Goodness knows what triggered my memory but something brought it to the surface this week and I've been meaing to remember to ask you. Sorry the news is bad. Will you get a replacement? There is a specialist supplier a few miles from us
