The plants at Lyn and Malcolm's Garden |
Review Notes: Root hardy, but although being on the south coast of england, we do get some cold nights in winter. For instance minus 10.3c in winter 2008/2009. So the trunks need some protection. We have tried several options, straw can get soggy and makes a terrible mess in the garden, it also attracts rodents. I have made up some wooden frames to which is attached a double layer of plastic bubble insulation. Four of these frames attached to each other at the edges, make up a square or oblong structure. This is fitted with a roof made up as another frame. We normally have thin wires run from the top to secure points in the garden to stop the whole lot from blowing away. |
